I hope everyone had a happy and healthy holiday season! I will continue to update you on new services and products recommend and offered throughout the year. The most commonly request I receive is that I offer wellness packages. This year I will offer 2 options that are comprehensive preventative care packages. The intention is to better prevent disease and identify ailments before they become a problem. My goal is to have the enrollment forms and pricing completed in the next week. The information will be posted on the Facebook page and under the clients tab of the website.
This year I will also be offering mesotherapy. Mesotherapy is a technique that has been used for over 30 years in France and consists of shallow (4-6 mm) injection of medications into tissue of the neck or back to block pain. The treatment stimulates the mesoderm, the middle layer of the skin, which will, in turn relieve a wide variety of symptoms and ailments by stopping the pain spasm cycle.
The number of treatments needed depends on many variables including the condition, the abnormal physiology causing the condition, as well as the chronicity of the problem. A minimum of one to two sessions of mesotherapy is performed generally to assess the horse’s response. Patients will be out of work for the first few days, then depending on the condition they can begin ground work or light work under saddle. As seen in the above picture there are small skin bumps that appear as the medication is deposited just below the skin surface. Theses swellings will quickly dissipate and the benefits should be realized in 3-7 days.
I have had success in cases where there has been a one-sided neck stiffness, generalized back discomfort, including case with "kissing spine syndrome" and with sacroiliac pain, and lower back pain. Frequently these treatments may also be combined with joint or para-spinal injections.
