How often do you have your horse adjusted?
My farrier use to do my chiro work too, and he's just check how when he came, but I no longer use him. I found a new chiro but don't know how often my horses should see her...

I have mine done every 3 months to 6 months or if they start feeling a bit stiff.

About every couple months, maybe more in the summer when we're really rodeoing hard or if my horse seems really sore.

Using an equine massage therapist can stretch your time between chiro appt.

I have mine adjusted every time I think something is out. Sometimes it may be twice a month or it can be several months between visits.

Every couple months usually or when she feels out. Mine does acupuncture with the chiro so I feel it lasts a lot longer that way.

I am a Chiropractor.  Animals are generally like kids they don't need it as often and respond quicker.  Find a good chiropractor and do what he says.  Some horses need it a few times a year, others need it once a month, depends on how your horse carries himself and what you do with your horse.

Vegas gets done every 6 weeks because that is when the chiro comes here from OK.

She uses herself very hard though.

 When needed..
I use a osteopathic vet
We do lots of different stretches etc that she recommends and has really made a difference.  I also use a back on track blanket etc..
