Tahoe’s Equine Chiropractic Session with Kevin

11/26/25 - Tahoe had been barrel kicked by another horse 5 weeks previously. After several other attempts with other interventions, she still wasn’t feeling herself and communicated as much to me through unusual behaviors.
After discussing options, I asked Dr. T to call in our local Equine Chiropracter, Kevin to treat Tahoe and 2 other horses were also scheduled.
This video is 10 minutes long, and worth the viewing; the process was one of the darnedest things Tahoe and I had ever experienced. By the time the session ended, she was back to her sweet self again, albeit a bit sore. I gave her additional days off and after checking in on her wellness using equine acupressure, I decided it was safe to ride her again 3 days later. To our joy, all of the negative behaviors she was using to communicate have disappeared.
The horse-human partnership is exemplified here. As I held her while Kevin treated her, I stayed completely present with her, maintaining eye contact with her and reassuring her she was safe. I’m a big believer in integrative care for horses and humans. This stuff works!
