A hands-on, safe, effective approach for many performance and movement problems
provides a complementary and integrative method of musculoskeletal care, which most horses respond well to and enjoy!
Compliments massage therapy and traditional lameness treatments such as back and joint injections and can be key in complex lameness cases
Useful in detecting and treating gait abnormalities
Helps alleviate back, neck, tail and extremity pain and stiffness
Specific areas of joint restriction or dysfunctional segments, including muscle tension areas, are detected using motion palpation and corrected using manual adjustments and soft tissue techniques
Adjustments are specific, controlled, quick, low-force maneuvers to help return a joint to normal motion or position, normalize nerve function, reduce pain, and improve overall health and quality of life.
Joint dysfunction/restrictions can cause various symptoms ranging from mild to severe. Affected vertebral segments can cause painful irritation to the surrounding nerves and tissues, which can interfere with normal nerve input to muscles and other parts of the body
Nerve pain, such as sciatic nerve irritation, has responded well to chiropractic adjustments.
