Focusing on Acupuncture & Adjustments
Equine Balanced Veterinary Care
Barbara S Wiborg DVM
My practice focuses on equine acupuncture and manipulative/spinal therapies (equine chiropractic) for horses. These two modalities complement each other very well, as well as complement Western Medicine. The practice is dedicated to the overall wellness of the animal and uses elements of taditional veterinary medicine, though traditional medicine is not practiced
Equine athletic performance/maintenance is a major emphasis of the practice, making lameness and gait evaluations an integral part of the acupuncture and manipulative therapy examinations. I work with performance horses of all disciplines: dressage, hunter/jumper, racing, western pleasure, gaited horses, barrel racing, etc.
In addition to athletic performance, the practice is geared toward overall body balance and general health. I have had great success in treating and alleviating the clinical signs associated with conditions such as: arthritis, allergies, autoimmune diseases, gastrointestinal disturbances, endocrine diseases (Cushing's, Diabetes, etc.) cancer, and many other types of ailments with the utilization of acupuncture. Recently I have added additional techniques and therapies to my practice. Chiropractic Manipulative Reflex Technique (CMRT) is a part of SOT chiropractic that has a similar effect on the nervous system as acupuncture, but does not utilize needles or invasive techniques. Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is a therapeutic technology used for the reduction of pain and inflammation associated with arthritis and soft tissue strains. It can be an excellent addition to help accelerate the healing process.
