General Equine Practice and other therapeutics

---

 In addition to general vet practice, such as Coggins tests, vaccines, wellness exams, teeth, fecal samples, parasite analysis, we also offer Chinese medical massage (tui na), lameness exams, joint injections, allergy testing, and  Reiki/energy work. 

Tui na

 Chinese massage is called Tui na and literally means push and grasp in Chinese.  Tui na is related to acupuncture and acupressure in its use of meridian pathways to restore the balance of yin and yang, stimulate qi and blood flow, remove blockages, reduce inflammation and pain. It is useful in treating injuries, joint and muscle problems and internal disorders.  Tui na can be applied to both horses and riders.

 Any horse can benefit from a course of Reiki treatments, regardless of age or state of health, and beneficial changes can take place over a fairly short space of time. Below are some of the problems or areas that Reiki has been found to help with:
