Chiropractic

Horses can greatly benefit from chiropractic care.  Horses with back pain often express this in their posture or in their refusal to work.  Everyday situations can expose a horse to spinal damage including: falls and slips, trailering, poor saddle fit and age.  Chiropractic treatment can be used for acute and chronic problems, for maintenance of health and as a preventative measure. The following are only some of the examples of reasons to seek chiropractic for your horse:
