YOU SAY IT ALL

Most people call me Zan or “Z”.  I'm a 7 year old Thoroughbred gelding. Up until a month ago, the only life I knew was on the track; racing for the past 5 years until the glorious day when I got to retire, which is where our story begins. My new mom has been around horses since she was a kid, including horses that raced and she had never ever had she seen a horse like me. My body had really taken a toll from the extensive training workouts, going in the same direction day after day on the race track, and being cooped up in a stall 24/7, and I’m not talking about my body condition.  Sure, my mom wanted me gain a few pounds, but I’m talking about the structure of my body and its ability to function. That’s where Dr. Jess came to my rescue.  My initial evaluation showed lots of areas in my spine that weren’t moving well, including some extremities and even my TMJ (jaw) needed work.  Dr. Jess also did a neurological test by shining a light into my eyes and watching for a response from the pupil to assess how well my nervous system was functioning.  I was very stressed and in fight or flight mode.  So, Dr. Jess went to work. After just a couple treatments, in just a few short weeks, I was noticeably better! My cribbing has almost disappeared (amazing, am I right?), my gait is less choppy and more fluid, and I'm starting to get better muscle tone, not to mention I'm finally able to buck and play like a normal horse! All that in less than a month, with no drugs whatsoever.  Plus, she redid the neurological test on my nervous system which showed significant improvement. That means my body is able to handle stress better, since being under chiropractic care. Who wouldn’t want that kind of results? I am loving my retirement so far, and my mom says we owe it all to Dr. Jess. We are so grateful for her and everything she does!

If you are even considering chiropractic care whether you’re a horse, dog, cat or whatever..do yourself a favor and tell your mom or dad to give her a call! She is a life saver!
