Additional Services
We believe that our
horses are true athletes, and as such require special individualized
care to keep them in top form. In addition to our excellent
nutrition program we utilize a team of specialists toward this
goal:

Katherine E.
Lyons, D.C. - Equine Chiropractor Services
With over 12 years of experience in
Equine Chiropractic, Dr. Lyons is a valuable part of our health
program. Since childhood, she has been involved with horses in
many different areas of the industry. A graduate of Life
Chiropractic College West in San Lorenzo, CA in 1993, she has been
working on horses ever since. As athletes, horses are subjected to
many of the same rigors that human athletes are, plus a few of their
own. In addition to the demands of the sport, other factors that
might necessitate chiropractic treatment include: accidents or injuries,
saddle fit, conformation or symmetry issues, trailer incidents or
long trailer rides to name a few. Dr. Lyons uses gentle and
effective techniques to help restore normal function to the spine,
enabling the horses to perform to the best of their
ability. An accomplished dressage rider, Dr. Lyons is able to
combine her knowledge of horses and the demands of their jobs with the
work that she does. She works with your horses veterinarian to
provide a well-rounded approach and believes firmly that horse care is a
team effort.
