In our seminars, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of equine biomechanics, with a focus on the clinical application of chiropractic principles. Key areas of instruction include:

• Assessment Strategies: Improve your ability to distinguish between normal and aberrant movement patterns using advanced assessment tools. The course includes a detailed analysis of equine movement patterns and their practical relevance to chiropractic techniques.

   

• Correction of Aberrant Motion Between Functional Units: Develop hands-on skills to identify and address dysfunctional movement patterns between motion segments using targeted chiropractic interventions.

   

  • Techniques for Hypomobility: Explore evidence-based techniques for restoring mobility, including:

    • High-Velocity, Low-Amplitude (HVLA) Adjustments — with emphasis on both assisted and resisted techniques.

    • Low-Velocity, Low-Amplitude (LVLA) Adjustments — including directed mobilizations, facilitated releases, and traction-based methods.

     

  • Soft Tissue Interventions: Gain hands-on proficiency in soft tissue techniques—such as myofascial release and trigger point therapy—and how to integrate these techniques with chiropractic care to improve musculoskeletal alignment, improve patient comfort, and optimize biomechanical function. The curriculum also explores the integration of adjunctive modalities, including acupuncture, dry needling and acupressure, to further support therapeutic outcomes.

     

  • Techniques for Hypermobility: Strategies to stabilize hypermobile regions through:

    • Strengthening protocols

    • Stabilization exercises

    • Proprioceptive training techniques
