| And is it chiropractic, massage, or another therapy, or a combination of a few different therapies? And what region are you in? No need to mention names, just wondering what you expect to pay per session. Thanks in advance! :) |

250-chiro
100-acupuncture
75-125-massage(depending on needs and the duration of the massage)
this is per horse and they all do it at our farm. These girls are all certified and come with excellent qualifications and reviews. Though I do want to throw up when I get totals for two horses.
ETA: They do not charge me extra for injections, nor do they charge for extra time spent. They could be here for 30 mins, or 3 hours and it doesn't effect the total. The quality of work, and the mindset they come in with is worth the expense.

| $50.00 for chiro. He doesn't charge if they are not out anywhere. I haul to him, but he comes to a place fairly close and several people haul in to see him. Massage I don't do often, but have paid $60 or 65 for, if I remember right. |

Location: Louisiana | The lady that did massages used to charge $60. She was amazing but just doesn't get anywhere near us anymore. Not enough call for it I guess. It's been years since my horses have had a massage and she used to come every 6 weeks :(
My local vet does chiro and acupuncture. I want to say it's around $80ish for chiro, maybe like $100-120 for both. I really can't remember, it's been a long time since I've had him out. And the last couple times T-Bo didn't need any work anyway.
I'm in southeast Louisiana.
I would be interested in having my guys get semi-regular massage sessions again. But I don't really know anyone in the area that does it.
ETA that te lady who massaged generally spent about an hour on each horse.

Good point hammer_time- I should have also asked how long these bodywork sessions ususally last, and how frequently they get them. I feel that someone who spends an hour and a half going through the whole horse, (especially the first time through) is worth more than the ones who line them up and spend 20 minutes max on each horse. Also, if the whole horse is addressed, there is more chance of the treatment holding for a longer period than that with the 20 minute session. But how much more is it worth it I guess is the million dollar question... |

Acupuncture depends on how much we do. I paid $45 last time for just shoulders. I think about $75 for full body.
Basic massage $40, but it's not very in depth. |

Location: Kansas | I am in Southeast Kansas but get some of my massage work done at Matt's place near Kansas City. Full-body massage/bodywork session is $75 per horse up there.
Chiro that I get done at my vet clinic by a visiting vet/chiro is $120 plus the clinic splits his trip charge among everyone who has a horse worked on that day. The last time I had a horse worked on, my share of the trip charge was $15. |

Location: Gainesville, TX | I've done some chiro. I think it helps best short term with muscoskeletal soreness. Anywhere from 60-120 a session.
I've done acupuncture some too, usually with the chiro. Add another $50-75.
Massage. I learned how to do that myself and do it if they look like they need it. |

Don't ask.....I think it's pointless, and a waste of money for the stupid injections. |

$75 after that - usually she just charges me $75 cause I always go to her!
She does chiropractic work, massage and uses essential oils! Love her! and she teaches me how to maintain my horses in-between visits and shows me what to do for each particular horse.

What do you pay for regular bodywork on your horses?
