RE: [RC] lame colt/Adequan - Kristen A Fisher

Diane - I don't know who posted the quote below, but can tell you we use
chiropractic in general [and Denise in particular!!] as routine maintenance
for well being. But what really hit me was, my gelding came out of his stall
after a week off training very lame on what seems to be his LF for no
apparent reason. The vet came out and blocked him up into his shoulder, and
he was still lame. Vat said 2 weeks off - some improvement but still lame. 2
more weeks of rest. Slightly better but still off. I made a special
out-of-cycle appt to have him adjusted, we gave him a couple days off after
the chiro, and he was right as rain.

I would definitely try the chiro. As for the Adequan - I am not a vet but I
do understand what Adequan is for, and I think it's not a good use of funds.
JMHO.

Good luck with him!
Kristen

We opted to give Dr. Denise Easterling a try. She is an 
equine chiropractor. The only way I can describe what she did 
was that a miracle happened. If I had not seen it, I don't 
think I would believe it.
