Explore an advanced and innovative approach to equine chiropractic care. A comprehensive understanding of equine biomechanics is essential for accurately evaluating movement patterns and the interrelationships among anatomical and neurologic structures, which is fundamental to effective chiropractic assessment and intervention. Our seminars offer an in-depth examination of clinical methodologies, designed to elevate professional expertise, enhance therapeutic proficiency, and optimize treatment outcomes for equine patients. This seminar will focus on the lumber and cervical regions.
