Re: opinions on horse chiropracters.

My personal opinion is that most are con artists.
I have yet to find one that will see a horse and not find a problem.
I cannot believe that every horse has a problem with its back that affects the way it works.
What behaviourial problems are you getting from the horse?
I would be very wary allowing someone to start messing around with him without a definite reason and proof to be honest.
I know of a friend who had a chiropractor out to her horse who was presenting with a sore back and reluctance to move forward.The chiropractor gave all this speel about tilted pelvis etc etc and said he would need a lot of work over a period of x weeks.Never once did she ask to take a look at the saddle she rode in which was the problem all along.
I am very cynical about them although in saying that there are some genuine ones out there.
