Why Equine Chiropractic?

For our loves that require rehabilitation. For those who have found new long term or temporary homes. For those who are training to be the best they can be.

This love came to me facing a long road of rehab, with a novice companion who just wanted the best for him. She found her love through a reputable trainer who had just rescued him and there wasn’t much history of his background.

When I met him, he lacked confidence. He lacked an understanding of his surroundings and the newfound love that was being poured into him. He had epidermal conditions that were just starting to be addressed. But the first step was to establish comfort and a better weight.

At first, his companion was unsure if she had made the right choice in adopting her new love. It was clear from his first adjustment that we had a lot to work through. It was clear he had a rough go in his younger years. But, as we have found our routine for when he needed adjustments, he has had a turn around physically and emotionally.

Chiropractic is more than a quick treatment for a symptom. It is about another love language, providing your love with thorough w V C care. It provides another set of eyes to give you encouragement, to help you see where you are and where you are going. Chiropractic can help provide comfort is ways that are not always immediately visible. This was the case with this love. He needed love from many directions including veterinary care, farrier, trainers, peers, and chiropractic. That is what he has received, and while there is more improvement to be made, it has been an honor to be part of his journey thus far.

Why equine chiropractic?

Something is off with your love and it appears serious enough that you feel it needs to be treated now. This may be a new issue or an ongoing issue that is getting worse.

This love’s companion reached out to me a few months ago with the following statement: “I'm wanting to set up a chiropractor appointment for my 14 year old paint gelding. I'm outside of [location] and if you don't service that area I would be willing to bring him to you. I've had the farrier out and she can't find any reason in his feet for him being off. He's off in the right front and left rear. No swelling that I can see in any joints.”

I purposely set days aside in my schedule to provide flexibility for situations like this or for clients who may be outside of the areas I visit regularly. As a result, I was able to make a quick visit and provide the care this love needed. One adjustment and he was starting “to be himself again.” One more follow up and he is back to being a good candidate for maintenance care.

Chiropractic can provide many benefits through maintenance care, but it can also be a value tool in treating injuries and other situations where something is clearly not quite right.

That is my approach, and it works!

It was a pleasure to work with some like-minded ladies with the same goal: To provide thorough and professional care for our clients! For anyone interested on how the “Trifecta” works, it is simple. We coordinate our schedules to go to an area where clients would like to have the tri-fec-ta of care, Massage/Cyrotherapy + Chiropractic + PEMF/Laser. Sometimes we move around to multiple locations or we may spend the day at one barn. Either way, we will be there. So excited to see where this trio care will take us next!
