Horse Joint Pain Relief Provided at the Dr. Ava Frick’s Animal Fitness Center

I never really thought about horse joint pain before. It always seemed to me that horses, especially my favorite pet Semper, is impervious to pain and sickness. Thus, when my beautiful stallion began displaying symptoms of arthritis, I was clueless as to what he was feeling and suffering from. Luckily I found Dr. Ava Frick’s website about her Animal Fitness Center. I discovered that all animals, including horses, can become ill in the same ways as a human. If I hadn’t brought my equine friend to the doctor on time, his joint problems would have exacerbated and I would really not forgive myself for being so insensitive to his pain.

What Dr. Ava Frick explained to me was that horse joint pain is common to equines that are at least 15 years of age. Tendons and cartilage, in horses and humans, wear down over time as they grow old. Since I got Semper when I was 14 I didn’t think about his aging causing pain, swelling, stiffness and swelling in his joints. I had not noticed that he was in so much pain and had been suffering for quite some time already. I was still putting him through hours of practice and even rode him everyday around our farm.

Equine joint pain is usually treated with medications and drugs. I know that pain medication and drugs can be harmful to my horses organs. I really wanted to make sure Semper’s care was as natural and holistic as possible. Good thing Dr. Ava Frick uses holistic treatments instead of common medicines. The main thing I liked about the Animal Fitness Center is their alternative treatment to relieving pain and discomfort in all animals. Not only do they specialize in relieving pain through electronic devices but they also concentrate on the proper nutrition needed for a fast recovery. Besides, I felt that genuine care and affection was given to my equine pet during his stay at the Animal Fitness Clinic.

One of the things that I really appreciated about Dr. Ava Frick is the chiropractic service she did for my Semper. This type of treatment is aimed at targeting the core of the problem and not merely the symptoms. Medication can treat horse joint pain but it doesn’t treat the problem just the pain felt from it. Aside from massage therapy, my horse was also subjected to PST Vet (Pulsed Signal Therapy), which is a non invasive type of pain management that not only helps alleviate pain but also boosts the functionality of problematic areas. With in a few weeks of care at Ava Frick’s Animal Fitness Center, Semper showed great improvement.Information on :Animal Chiropractic
