Chiropractic
Chiropractic care is not just for people, it is also a valuable therapy for horses. Chiropractic treatments focus on restoring spinal alignment, promoting nervous system health, and improving overall well-being.
What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic care for horses is a non-invasive treatment to improve the musculoskeletal system. During chiropractic treatment, we assess and manipulate the spine and related structures to ensure proper alignment.
Benefits of Chiropractic Treatments
Pain relief: Just like humans, horses can suffer from musculoskeletal discomfort and pain. Chiropractic adjustments can relieve pain caused by imperfections, allowing horses to move more comfortably.
Improved performance: Proper spinal alignment contributes to better performance in various activities.
Prevention and Maintenance: Regular chiropractic care can prevent potential problems, but detecting and addressing minor imperfections early can prevent them from developing into more serious problems.
Improved Flexibility and Range of Motion: Chiropractic adjustments help increase the flexibility and range of motion of your horse's joints.
Overall Well-being: Chiropractic care not only focuses on physical health, it also contributes to the horse's mental and emotional well-being.
Recovery from injuries: Chiropractic care can be an effective part of a rehabilitation plan, helping horses recover faster and more completely.
