We treat all classes of horses and ponies, for all types of problem. We have a special interest in horses' backs, laminitis, navicular syndrome, lameness, headshaking (head shaking, head-shaking, head shaker, head-shaker), allergy, allergic skin disease, sweet itch, mud fever, COPD, periodic ophthalmia (recurrent ophthalmia, recurrent uveitis, moonblindness), wobbler syndrome, saddling, diet and general welfare.

 

We visit equine patients anywhere in the UK and have also visited in Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Ireland and France, although the Midlands, East Anglia, South Wales, the West Country, the South of England and the South East are the areas visited more commonly.

Our holistic approach leads us to examine closely all details such as feeding, grazing, saddling and shoeing, in our attempts to maximise healing. In this way, many serious and intractable diseases and pathologies can resolve, often defying a poor prognosis. All patients are given natural dietary advice and are offered chiropractic manipulation.

 

We treat all types of farm animals, providing a nutritional and preventive medicine service to organic farmers and those planning conversion, in addition to caring for more 'conventional' farms. We offer a discount to bona fide members of the Soil Association, for farm work.

We help institute welfare and health programmes and advise on any aspect of livestock management.

We treat donkeys, buffalo, goats, llamas, poultry and others, on the same basis.

We visit anywhere in England and Wales but nowhere in the UK, Ireland or Mainland Europe is automatically excluded.
