One of our aims is to get as much information from looking at the horse at rest and moving before we leap in with all the equipment. We are experts in clinical examination and in listening to you about your concerns. Each horse and rider combination is unique and we take this into account as we look at how your horse is moving and performing.
We sometimes use nerve and joint blocks to help us be more certain of where the problem lies. In these procedures we desensitize or numb different parts of the leg and see whether the lameness improves following the block.
