Here we look at; What to Look Out for When Finding a ‘Horse Chiropractor near Me’. This is part of our series on Horse Chiropractors.
When you own a horse you love them like you would your own child and only want the absolute best for them in every respect. It’s often tricky to find a horse chiropractor who you trust with your horses but there are a few things that you should look out for when choosing someone, whether it be a farrier, an equine chiropractor or a saddle fitter…
What to Look Out for When Finding a ‘Horse Chiropractor near Me’
Insurance
All professionals that work with your horse should have insurance. It’s absolutely ok to ask your horse chiropractor to see their certificate of insurance before they treat your horse.
Veterinary Permission
All equine chiropractors are classed as secondary carers when it comes to animals so must work with the approval of your vet. Be wary of anyone who doesn’t ask this.
I have an easy online form that either you or your vet can fill in before your horse’s session.
Check Qualifications
There is a huge difference in levels of qualifications. Make sure the practitioner has a high level of qualification from a well regarded place of study such as the McTimoney College of Chiropractic which offers a Postgraduate Degree.
Recommendations and Reviews
Word of mouth is always a great way to find someone, but even if the person comes recommended it’s always important to make sure the above criteria are still met.
If all these things ring true then the last thing you need is a connection. You need to trust the person and make sure both you and your horses feel a positive connection to them and trust them to do a good job.
