Thinking about adding another family member? 🐎💸
Before you seal the deal, make sure your future partner is ready for the job with a Pre-Purchase Exam (PPE)!

A PPE helps identify any injuries, lameness, or hidden health issues that could affect the horse’s performance. Even if the horse seems perfect, a vet check might reveal small things—like needing joint support or maintenance injections—to keep them feeling their best!

What’s in a full PPE?
✅ Physical Exam
✅ Soundness Evaluation
✅ Flexion Tests
✅ X-rays & Imaging
✅ Screening Blood Work

On a budget or buying a lower-level horse? No problem—we can tailor the exam to fit your needs. At the very least, we recommend the physical, soundness, and flexion tests for any horse, no matter the price tag.

Next week, we’ll break down the 5 stages of a PPE—stay tuned!

Today, we remember. 🇺🇸🕯️
On this day, 24 years ago, our nation was forever changed. We pause to honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001 — the innocent victims, the brave first responders, and all the families whose lives were impacted by that tragic day.
We will never forget the courage, unity, and resilience that rose from the ashes. In remembering, we also recommit to kindness, compassion, and the strength that binds us together as a community and a nation.

Rehab Thursday: Boost Recovery with BEMER®!
We’re thrilled to share that we’ve added a second BEMER® Equine System to our rehabilitation program — now with the new neck piece! 🙌
The BEMER® Equine System uses PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) therapy to naturally stimulate healthy muscle function and improve local blood circulation — key components of healing, recovery, and overall performance. As proud BEMER® partners, we’ve seen firsthand how this technology enhances recovery for our equine patients, and we’re excited to expand its role in our customized rehab plans.

Non-invasive and easy to use, the therapy is delivered through a specially designed blanket, neck piece, and leg cuffs, with adjustable settings to suit your horse's individual needs. Treatment can be done with the blanket alone, a leg cuff, or a combination of both.

BEMER® therapy can be specially helpful for:
• Soft tissue injuries
• Bone fractures
• Recovery after intense training
• Overall wellness when used consistently

We’ve also seen enhanced results when alternating BEMER® sessions with Class IV laser therapy. Horses receiving regular BEMER® treatments are showing impressive progress in healing, relaxation, and performance.

If you are interested in a BEMER treatment for your horse or purchasing your own, please reach out to us at [email protected] or by calling or texting (970) 368-3125.

🌊 Water Height in the Water Treadmill MATTERS 🐴💪

Did you know that the height of the water in a treadmill session has a big impact on your horse’s rehab or conditioning?

🔹 Higher water levels reduce weight-bearing on the limbs and joints—but increase drag/resistance.
🔹 Lower water levels promote range of motion—but can increase strain on tendons/ligaments.

⚠️ This means that improper water levels could put your horse at risk if not managed correctly.

That’s why all of our treadmill sessions are customized by our rehabilitation veterinarians, based on:
✔️ Type/location of injury
✔️ Rehab phase & specific goals (e.g. reduced load, improved ROM, strength)
✔️ Sport-specific conditioning needs

Sports Medicine Sunday: Exploring Equine Acupuncture 🌿
Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture is based on the belief that horses have energy channels (or meridians) running through their bodies. When these channels are blocked, it can cause discomfort, musculoskeletal issues, and internal imbalances (like GI, respiratory, or cardiovascular problems).

There are several forms of equine acupuncture:
🔹 Simple needling (most common)
🔹 Electroacupuncture
🔹 Aquapuncture

Simple needling involves placing fine, sterile needles into specific points in the muscles for 15–20 minutes. Needle size and placement depend on the horse’s size, muscle tension, and sensitivity. Most horses tolerate it very well—and many even relax or nap during treatment!

Electroacupuncture adds mild electrical stimulation to the needles for deeper muscle relief in painful areas.
Aquapuncture involves injecting a small amount of a substance (like vitamin B12) for longer-lasting point stimulation.

Acupuncture works by stimulating nerves, muscles, and connective tissue—activating the body’s natural healing processes.

Conditions that may benefit include:
✔️ Osteoarthritis & joint pain
✔️ Back soreness
✔️ Anxiety
✔️ Laminitis
✔️ GI issues (ulcers, diarrhea)
✔️ Respiratory concerns
✔️ Nerve injuries (facial nerve paralysis)
✔️ Skin allergies & conditions
✔️ Reproductive issues
✔️ Fibromyalgia-like muscle pain

All of our vets are Nationally Certified in Veterinary Medical Acupuncture (cVMA), ensuring safe and effective care for your horse.
