I would like to introduce you to The Whole Horse Veterinary Clinic and Center for Equine Rehabilitation. This facility is owned and operated by Lu Ann Groves DVM. The center offers the best of both conventional and complementary medicine to evaluate and treat horses of all breeds and disciplines. We specialize in Equine Osteopathy. We are soon to expand to do Canine Osteopathy as well. Dr. Groves
is also certified in Veterinary Homeopathy, Chiropractic, and Acupuncture. We have an ozone generator to aid us in treating infections and tissue damage. Research was conducted at the Orthopaedic Reseach Center at Colorado State University that proved spinal manipulative therapy improves spinal flexibility in actively ridden horses (TheHorse.com/17533). Also, according to Jennifer Brooks, PT, Med, CERTP, physical therapy can actually improve the conditions if the horse has any of previous illnesses or injuries such as:
A. Osteoarthritis
B. Bucked shins, splints, curbs, and some fractures
C. Spinal dysfunction and back pain
D. Injuries or paralysis of the suprascapular nerve
E. Muscle atrophy
F. Acute and chronic wounds
G. Neck, trunk, limb inflexibility
H. Stifle weakness and dysfunction
I. Recovery from neurologic disease such as equine protozoal myeloencephalitis
