McTimoney treatment and Acupuncture
              
McTimoney treatment is a chiropractic technique developed by John McTimoney in the 1950s. He himself treated animals as well as humans. This treatment uses very gentle but speedy adjustments to rebalance the whole body by aligning spine and joints.
Common problems treated by McTimoney include:
  • the collection of symptoms known as a 'cold back'
  • bucking
  • tail clamping or swishing
  • general grumpiness
  • loss of performance, especially lack of straightness, refusal to jump
  • uneven wear of shoes, dragging of toes

                                                      
Acupuncture has been used for thousands of years on both humans and animals. It is generally accepted that acupuncture can provide effective pain relief, but it can also be helpful with problems like:

  • sinusitis
  • neurological problems (headshaking, traumatic nerve damage)
  • muscle strain
  • arthritis
  • some hormonal problems
