Starting off the new year with another story of “Why Equine Chiropractic.” This time with the collaboration of a certified PEMF practitioner.

I have had the privilege to work alongside Ashely with Steel Creek Therapy on this case for the last few months.

Cruz presented with chronic lameness due to an injury from about a year ago. His companions were at a loss on what to do as he had been cleared by numerous practitioners prior but was clearly still lame.

First, they found Ashley, who invested significant time traveling out to work on Cruz regularly. Her PEMF treatments broke through multiple barriers, but she still ran into a roadblock anatomically. This is when I was asked to come out to work on Cruz.

From the first adjustment, it was clear there was significant work to be done. It required consistent adjustments, PEMF and laser treatments to bring him to a point where we finally cleared him for light work starting 2026!

It was an honor to be brought in to help Cruz. He has been chronically lame for too long, and the progress we have made is beyond exciting. The impact chiropractic can have is what keeps me energized. For Cruz, it just took a collection of coordinated modalities to get there, and I am more than thrilled to have been part of his journey to comfort.

This past weekend, I had the pleasure to watch my canine clients perform their passion with their humans in agility competitions. I have been working with this demographic of canines for a while now, and wanted to better understand how they use their bodies.

This resulted in the privilege of Pikes Peak Agility Club - PPAC DAPPR welcoming me to provide chiropractic care for their canine competitors and their human companions.

It was a weekend filled with understanding their discipline, meeting more like-minded individuals and watching my regular clients compete for titles.

What made it even sweeter? Getting the opportunity to work alongside Ashley with Steel Creek Therapy, who provides PEMF and cryotherapy, to maximize comfort and care with a collaborative approach.

Thank you everyone who trusted me this weekend. I truly look forward to future events to continue my learning journey with the canine agility world.

Why Equine Chiropractic?

For our loves that require rehabilitation. For those who have found new long term or temporary homes. For those who are training to be the best they can be.

This love came to me facing a long road of rehab, with a novice companion who just wanted the best for him. She found her love through a reputable trainer who had just rescued him and there wasn’t much history of his background.

When I met him, he lacked confidence. He lacked an understanding of his surroundings and the newfound love that was being poured into him. He had epidermal conditions that were just starting to be addressed. But the first step was to establish comfort and a better weight.

At first, his companion was unsure if she had made the right choice in adopting her new love. It was clear from his first adjustment that we had a lot to work through. It was clear he had a rough go in his younger years. But, as we have found our routine for when he needed adjustments, he has had a turn around physically and emotionally.

Chiropractic is more than a quick treatment for a symptom. It is about another love language, providing your love with thorough w V C care. It provides another set of eyes to give you encouragement, to help you see where you are and where you are going. Chiropractic can help provide comfort is ways that are not always immediately visible. This was the case with this love. He needed love from many directions including veterinary care, farrier, trainers, peers, and chiropractic. That is what he has received, and while there is more improvement to be made, it has been an honor to be part of his journey thus far.
