I was going to have a trainer ride her today, but she was too sore for it. I didn’t even saddle her due to how sensitive her back is right now.

    OP says horse chiros are basically PTs. I don’t know whether to believe them or not, but the idea that you don’t need to be a full vet to give a horse PT seems reasonable.

        Worse, is snake oil for horse owners.

        Unless it’s more of a message and the horse feels better after some deep tissue work.

          Chiropractic is one step away from placing amythest crystals around the room and humming.

          At best it’s a shitty massage and if they sold the service as shitty massage (that might badly injure your spine) there wouldn’t be a problem.

          An equine massage therapist? Fine, it’s honest. Equine chiropractic? Horse feathers.
