Equine Manipulation

FAQs

How often should my animal be treated?
When used regularly, manipulation is a preventative therapy. The frequency of treatments depends on the animal's discipline and workload. Amy will suggest the frequency of visits after each treatment.
Should I consult my vet before treatment?
It is always suggested that your horses vet be consulted before any treatment program begins.
Will my horse need time off after treatment?
Yes: ideally horses will need 24 - 48 hours off after each treatment.
Will the treatment hurt?
Whilst various other manipulation techniques rely on fierce, (or invasive), long-lever adjustments to correct bone misalignments, it is important to understand that McTimoney-Corley Spinal Therapy does not do this, and cannot damage animals. It works with the body, not against it. Treating the whole skeleton at each treatment session means that any misaligned bones are not forced back into place, but are coaxed gently into position by adjustments that encourage soft tissue release.
