The lameness examination uses a combination of history from the owner, visual examination of the horse in motion, musculoskeletal palpation and manipulation, and variably using advanced imaging diagnostics (Digital Radiography, Digital Ultrasonography, Nuclear Scintigraphy and MRI) to determine the source of pain or decreased performance in the equine athlete. If a problem is diagnosed, we can provide numerous therapeutic treatments (from simple physical therapy or medications to IRAP, Stem Cell, or Shockwave) and will design a lay-up and rehabilitation program specific to your horse’s needs.
