Chiropractic care has so many benefits for promotion of health and sustaining an active career. While we can use chiropractic adjustments to help horses who have developed a sudden onset of pain, the most effective use is as a preventative therapy. The horses love it most of all🐴❤️

That includes things like record management for patients and keeping our doctors safe with skillful horse-handling capabilities. If possible, we'd also like to hand over labwork set up and some other office duties. For those who are licensed technicians, we will work together to create an opportunity for you to begin to see your own caseload as well.

We want to find the right fit to join our team and can be flexible with scheduling and other needs when we find the right person! If you're interested, please email us some info about yourself and send along a resume to [email protected].

Why do we love dry lots / small paddocks in the fall? Because the sugar levels in grass are SUPER HIGH this time of year. For horses with metabolic issues (like Cushing's or Insulin Resistance) these high sugars can lead to laminitic episodes and other issues. Tex here cannot keep a muzzle on (Houdini's assistant) so he gets locked up in our small paddock during the times of year when grasses are stressed or growing super fast.

It’s abscess season! This guy will be feeling so much better now that we have established drainage.
