Just wanted to share my wonderful experience of using this technique on my 6 month filly who had soft tissue injury after falling over. Vets wanted to do many x rays and put on medication and were suggesting she could be a wobbler! Got a lady out that does the McTimoney chiro and i cannot believe how effective this was. Not only did she put my filly right, she also put me right!! After suffering for over 3 yrs with an injury after a fall and had to see regularly, chiro and physio, costing me a fortune, one session i was back to normal. I was amazed and strongly recommend anyone with simular problems whether its horse or rider. Hope this helps someone :D

Wow totally different from my experience with the McTimoney chiro I used in 2004 when they said my wobblers horse hadn't got wobblers even though it was it the latter stages and he was throwing his outside hind leg out terribly whilst turned in a circle, and he was practically ready to fall over if you so much blew on his backside. I had serious suspicions this is what he had at the time. If its the same one as I used (the chap who runs it has the initials SD - lovely, lovely chap) then just be warned... if its the lady I saw from his practice then you may just as well ask the yard cat!

Twice I had her out as the horse in question was knocking his hind fetlocks together and causing open sores on the inside of his fetlocks and he had never been close behind previously. Initially I thought it was a back problem that had caused his new way of going. When that didn't work I even asked the farrier if he thought it would be prudent to build up his inside hinds a little to try to stop the rubbing.

Turned out he was a grade 3 touching on 4 wobbler/cvm case and was pts aged 10 a few months later after a long, tedious and sad journey of misdiagnosis which led to him going to a hospital for a correct diagnosis and immediate euthanasia on humane grounds.

PS in case you don't know this - if they think your filly could be a wobbler be very careful with what you feed her. The cause of wobbler syndrome in horses is still uncertain but it is strongly believed that it can be caused by feeding excessive amounts of energy and other nutrients which can encourage rapid growth, and decreased copper/increased zinc levels whilst horses are in their early growth stage.
 
I've got a McTimoney chiro coming out to check my girl next Friday. She's fine but I like her checked every 6-9 months and she loves the hands on treatment and leans into it :)

I've used the same McTimoney practitioner for a few years and luckily had nothing but good experiences.
 
I to have had wonderful experience of McTimoney. I was sceptical at first but after seeing the improvements first hand I think its fab. :)
