Edit: some of y’all are upset about horse chiropractor. Called the dude up and he is an equine physiotherapist and people just call him “the chiropractor”
I was going to have a trainer ride her today, but she was too sore for it. I didn’t even saddle her due to how sensitive her back is right now.
OP says horse chiros are basically PTs. I don’t know whether to believe them or not, but the idea that you don’t need to be a full vet to give a horse PT seems reasonable.
It kinda just sounds like its snake oil, but for horses
Worse, is snake oil for horse owners.
Unless it’s more of a message and the horse feels better after some deep tissue work.
Chiropractic is one step away from placing amythest crystals around the room and humming.
At best it’s a shitty massage and if they sold the service as shitty massage (that might badly injure your spine) there wouldn’t be a problem.
An equine massage therapist? Fine, it’s honest. Equine chiropractic? Horse feathers.
I wonder if there’s horse oil for snakes.
