Equine Chiropractic

Veterinary Chiropractic is a manual therapy, which aims to restore function of muscles and joints in the neck, back and pelvis to maintain optimum movement and soundness. It focuses on the biomechanical dysfunction of the spine and its further effects on the entire nervous system throughout the body.

Veterinary chiropractic treatment does not replace traditional veterinary medicine, but can provide additional means of diagnosis and treatment options for spinal problems, as well as biomechanical-related musculoskeletal disorders.

Veterinary chiropractic treatment can be useful for:

• Enhancing performance ability in competition horses.

• Chronic musculoskeletal problems.

• Acute problems, such as muscular tension or stiffness.

• Prophylactic treatment to maintain fitness.

• Maintenance of soundness in older animals.

• Treatment of chronic and acute pain syndromes.

• Complementary treatment for chronic lameness such as bone spavin, osteoarthritis, navicular syndrome or tendon problems.
