Lameness Evaluation
Our lameness evaluations identify causes of equine discomfort through physical exams, imaging, and nerve blocks. We treat issues like joint pain, hoof imbalances, and soft tissue injuries using regenerative therapies, shock wave therapy, and targeted medications. Our approach ensures accurate diagnosis and customized treatment plans for improved mobility and performance.
Dental Care
We provide comprehensive dental care, including routine exams, floating, and advanced procedures like tooth extractions. Using specialized tools and endoscopy, we address dental abnormalities to improve digestion, comfort, and overall health. Regular dental maintenance helps horses maintain weight and perform optimally.
Diagnostic Imaging
Our digital radiology, ultrasound, and endoscopy equipment enables precise internal evaluations. These tools help diagnose respiratory issues, gastric ulcers, and musculoskeletal problems. Portable technology allows on-site imaging for timely, accurate assessments of performance horses and critical cases.
Field Surgery
We perform field surgeries including castrations, sarcoid removal, and dental procedures. Treatments are conducted with standing sedation or general anesthesia, depending on complexity. Our mobile setup ensures safe, effective surgical interventions in familiar environments for reduced stress.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture sessions target musculoskeletal, respiratory, and neurological conditions by stimulating specific points to improve energy flow. This therapy complements traditional treatments for chronic pain, allergies, and performance issues, promoting natural healing and enhanced well-being in horses.
