Would you be concerned if . . .

. . .You had a chiropractor out to your horse and then your horse was lame for a few days after their visit?? She cribs so is always tight through poll, neck and shoulders. I have had her years and she has never changed her cribbing despite various management changes - even out 24/7 she will crib. So the muscle tightness is somethig I need to manage. Treated on Friday afternoon - lame Saturday morning although better today. Chiro said she was very tight in shoulders and did a lot of pulling around.

Secondly, does anyone have any thoughts on t-touch massage? Any sucess stories?

yes I would be concerned and woul dhave been ringing the chiro to tell them so! no horse should be more lame after treatment

I'd be concerned and would ask the Chiro to come and observe the horse BUT it is also feasible the Chiro visit and next day lameness are unrelated and just a timing coincidence

It si feasible but highly unlikely. She was hacked sound Friday prior to treatment, in her stable over night after her treatment then lame first thing Saturday morning. Thanks for your thoughts.
