*NEW SERVICE *

We are pleased to now be able to offer chiropractic treatment for our equine patients. Our vet Jen Allen is a member of the International Veterinary Chiropractic Association.

''I have been integrating chiropractic as a multimodal treatment option for all disciplines of equines as well as the happy hackers and as a part of geriatric care. Chiropractic treatment is a manual therapy which helps restore normal range of motion of all the joints in the body and by doing so this allows the nervous system to communicate efficiently. Chiropractic can be used to help treat poor performance, lameness, stiffness, back pain, general well-being maintenance and can be used in rehabilitation cases from surgery or other musculoskeletal injuries''

Feel free to contact us if you are interested in a chiropractic evaluation for your horse or pony.

TOP TIPS FOR HELPING WITH WEIGHT LOSS

1. Soak your horse’s hay for around 12 hours to remove the sugars from the hay. Use fresh water each time to you soak your hay and dispose of the water after each soaking. To ensure that your horse is still receiving their necessary nutrients, please consult your vet.
2. Use either a double hay net or a small holed haynet to decrease forage intake – this can help to slow down your horse when eating
3. Use a grazing muzzle can prevent your horse from gaining weight, and will also prevent them overeating in the field.
4. Increase your horse’s exercise, even it is it additional lunging sessions etc
5. Horses also burn energy to keep their bodies warm, so use less rugs on them during colder weather
Remember that you horse should only lose around 1% of their body mass each week. Please consult your vet if you think your horse is losing more.
