Oh boy... so happy to report that it went SO well for both of them!!
I tell you, if I had a million dollars to spend, I'd be getting a day a week for her to 'do' all of my horses! It is an amazing thing...
First she did Ace...
he was better already as I have said... but... now!!!
Linika was there to hold him... and I've made a believer in her now too... Sandi is amazing...
Ace had T12 thru his Lumbars all locked up.. and his hips were locked tucked. He also has severe hock arthritis... so, he is in need of some suppliments for that...
BUT... Linika tells me... when they were done, he was standing with his hind legs square!!! and walking with out a limp!!!
:-)
and she says, he'll be 'fine'.....
(with the understanding that I told her we were after an outcome of pasture sound, in no unmanageable pain)
And, then they did Bob Marley...
I just had a hunch, with his bucking thing, that he might need some help. Nothing huge.... just some hesitation to turn tight to the left, and bucking in the deeper end of my arnea at the lope...
and... his right hip was so far out to the rear that she had trouble finding it at all!!! The comment was "if he was running ok before... You'd better HOLD ON now!!!"
he is a bugger for carrot stretches... way too smart... didn't want to work for the carrot.... hehe.... 'hey, you are gonna take it away, so forget it! I will just stand here and ignore you!"
what a character!!!
I bet he's feeling fine now too... !!!
Another wonderful day of chiro and massage...
I sure wish I had a donor to pay for all of them to get a treatment every few months... hmmm, I'll have to work on that!
(and no.... I asked... she won't do humans... darn!)
