The "Work Your Horse Challenge" can be a fun and productive way to ensure that you and your horse are in top shape and ready for the activities you have planned in the spring. Winter can be a challenging time for equestrians, with colder weather and less daylight, so having a supportive group like this can provide motivation and a sense of purpose for your training and riding. ๐
Meet Dixie! This AQHA mare is as perfect as they come! Dixie enjoys strutting her stuff down centerline in both Classical and Western Dressage as well as taking leisurely strolls through the woods. Dixie always enjoys her visits from Turning Point Vet and we enjoy making sure that she feels 110%! ๐
This seems simple, but your horse might disagree. This exercise of lifting the belly causes your horse to have to use their core (belly) muscles to lift their back and sternum. You should see your horse raise their back a few inches to stretch their lower withers and thoracic spine. If your horse is used to collecting and rounding this is likely easy, but if you horse has signs of back pain or decreased core strength you may see them act resistant to this exercise.
Visit our YouTube page to see instructions on how to perform this simple but important exercise.
If your horse is having trouble we would recommend an appointment to determine why they are struggling and form a specific plan to best first their needs.

Dr. Michelle Bucci started Turning Point Integrative Veterinary Care to provide mobile acupuncture services to small and large animals to Dayton and surrounding areas. After working as an equine and small animal practitioner she became a certified veterinary medical acupuncturist in order to help improve the lives of pets with minimally invasive techniques.
Acupuncture is a growing field that uses the placement of small needles to stimulate the bodyโs own nervous, musculoskeletal, and immune system to produce a positive response. While Traditional Chinese Medicine relies on the movement of energy. Turning Point strives to use acupuncture as an adjunct to western medicine with a focus on treating a specific medial diagnosis. Through the safe, painless insertion of needles we can to treat a multitude of diseases. Thus far, acupuncture has shown to aid in the treatment of: acute and chronic pain, neurological and muscular diseases, immune disorders, and reproductive issues. It is important to understand that while acupuncture has been show to treat many disorders, it is not a quick fix and does not cure all disorders. Acupuncture does not cure cancer but can help with secondary pain associated with chronic issues.
In 2019, we have been able to add chiropractic care to the practice. All animals can benefit from restoring motion to areas that are stiff and โstuckโ. It has been amazing to watch the improvements in many animals after just a couple adjustments.
It is our mission at Turning Point to provide complete compassionate care for all animals. We provide mobile veterinary acupuncture and chiropractic service to large and small animals. Most pets are more comfortable and calm in their own home or barn and allows for the patient to be treated in a stress free environment. The initial exam is extensive and will include a physical exam, neurological exam, lameness exam, and myofascial palpation exam. Turning Point is a mobile practice but does not have capabilities to do advance diagnostic imaging (ie. X-rays or ultrasound). There may be time that we will recommend further diagnostics at your regular veterinarianโs clinic.
We would be happy to answer any further questions or make an appointment buy phone or email.
