THE MAN BEHINd MUSTANg MEDICINE

FOUNDER HUGH VAIL

Hugh has a rare gift for bridging the untamed wisdom of wild mustangs with the healing men and women need most today. With decades of experience gentling horses and guiding people, he has led over 5,000 men through retreats, workshops, and circles designed to restore nervous system balance, resilience, and authentic connection.

His own journey through the fires of high conflict divorces and seasons of deep transformation shaped his conviction that true strength comes not from control but from surrender and presence. Hugh’s work is about teaching men to reclaim their wholeness, regulate their bodies, and build sovereign relationships with themselves and others.

At Mustang Medicine, Hugh continues to create spaces where men step into brotherhood, truth, and freedom, supported by horses, nature, and each other.
