The other one said something about being out in the hock would maybe prevent her from pushing off with that right rear leg or something. She may have mentioned hip, but the two main things I heard was hock and neck. Do you have any ideas of where to find good chiro's? I know you said referrals, but I've gotten only two. One you have to have a bunch of people because she's kind of far away and has to make it worth her while (I can't pay $700 myself), and I can only get 3 horses together that are nearby. We don't have a trailer. She did the work on my mare and my trainer's girlfriend was nice enough to trailer my mare 2 hours or so away to get it done when she got her horse done, but I don't expect her to do it all the time. The other one I was referred to has a HUGE client base and although he makes farm calls, I cannot seem to get ahold of him. We kept missing each other's calls and then nothing. I've heard he's good from more than one person (including our awesome ferrier), but just can't get ahold of him. There's just no one close by it seems.ezra_pandorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04626213285612235702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-89601237839011486732008-10-07T17:24:00.000-06:002008-10-07T17:24:00.000-06:00Chiro work really, truly helped my TB gelding. We ...Chiro work really, truly helped my TB gelding. We had a nasty crash while jumping and a few days later he started bucking instead of cantering. Literally -- every stride was a buck. This from a horse who loved cantering and would canter until the cows came home? Something was up. After an adjustment, he was good as gold.<BR/><BR/>I need to have a chiro come out and check out the new mare. Backstory is that she reared, went up/over, had a chiro come out and she was majorly out in the jaw as well as messed up from the withers through her hips on the left side. Since it wasn't on my watch that she was adjusted, I want to make sure everything is still going smoothly. <BR/><BR/>I'm looking forward to the rest of these articles!manymisadventureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00269126419483167938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-1194545878396641332008-10-07T11:42:00.000-06:002008-10-07T11:42:00.000-06:00ezra-I suspect your mare actually has something ou...ezra-I suspect your mare actually has something out of place in her left pelvic wing. When a horse refuses to take a lead and you know it is not from lack of training, I have found it is associated with the pelvis. Being out in the hock(although I have never heard of that-doesn't mean it isn't correct-I just personally have never heard of it)would inhibit the mare from traveling correctly in the left lead, but not stop her from picking the lead up, because when a horse lifts to transition into a canter, they lift with their hips. The left pelvic wing has to rise and move forward-a sublaxation prevents that from happening. I especially think it is in the hip because you say she is crabby about her hind feet. Again, when you pick up a hind foot, the horse lifts from the hip, not the hock. I think your chiro helped when she adjusted her but didn't get the pelvis put back in all the way and it just slipped back out again.<BR/>Hope that helps.BrownEyed Cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03610547057139295854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-32251603831362338582008-10-07T10:22:00.000-06:002008-10-07T10:22:00.000-06:00My mare was out in her right left lower leg (I thi...My mare was out in her right left lower leg (I think she said hock?) and her left side neck/shoulder area. After she got her adjustment, she was able to pick up her left lead without any problems. I think she's out again because she's refusing to lope on the correct lead to the left again and is cranky when I try to pick up her back feet for cleaning. Our two mares have really been going at it with each other and I think that's why she's out again. Dumb horses. lol My trouble is trying to find someone that is close or can come to our barn because we don't have a trailer.ezra_pandorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04626213285612235702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-89174932033937798312008-10-06T20:48:00.000-06:002008-10-06T20:48:00.000-06:00Cdn-I haven't had any that did, but I did a little...Cdn-I haven't had any that did, but I did a little reading on it today and I can see why a chiro would use it. It sounds like the laser light therapy really works to rejuvenate cells and speeds healing.<BR/>I have thought about getting the magnetic hock and knee boots. I know some of the top barrel racers use them and say they really help keep horses from getting sore. I am all for anything that helps the body to rejuvenate naturally.<BR/><BR/>Tiller-When and where?BrownEyed Cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03610547057139295854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-44436916795310749232008-10-06T19:57:00.000-06:002008-10-06T19:57:00.000-06:00Marry me or turn me looseMarry me or turn me looseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-70182264440449804822008-10-06T16:01:00.000-06:002008-10-06T16:01:00.000-06:00Have any of the chiros you've used done laser/ligh...Have any of the chiros you've used done laser/light therapy?<BR/>The girl that I get to do chiro on my horse uses a lot of that and it seems to get results.cdncowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055181472294995601noreply@blogger.com
