Success Stories - Star of the Month

To let everyone share in our excitement in their improvement, we thought we would highlight some animals’ great progress.

Heidi is an Alpaca A baby alpaca who could not get up, immediately sorted out with Chiropractic.

The Old Gentleman A prize-winner, canoeist and surfer, this old dog took comfort from hydrotherapy.

Toby ‘Torpedo Knickers’ Winn This 14year-old rescue dog was losing his back-end: recovered after 3 Chiropractic treatments and maintained in a joyful quality of life by hydrotherapy.

From Rescue to National Competition Described as “the worst case of cruelty” this ten-year-old thoroughbred mare recovered to start dressage training and then serious show-jumping.

Muffin is Walking Again! A disc had caused nerve damage in this Daschund’s long & vulnerable backs, disabling his back legs so, he was unable to walk or even stand. Chiropractic and hydrotherapy got him back on his feet and walking.

He’s Getting Younger! At eleven years old, this Irish Setter was doing well for his breed. However, his back legs were letting him down. Now, “He pulls me round a three and half mile walk and he jumps a ditch that I can’t”

My Buffalo's Back! “My buffalo can’t walk, and the vet has tried everything and says it may be time to put her down.” After a chiropractic treatment, she was up and walking again.

Back In The Show Ring This 2 year-old yellow Labrador had a promising Show career and at Crufts. Then he had an accident that nearly stopped his career dead in its tracks. “I have now got him back in the Show Ring – I’m so impressed – I didn’t think I ever would. Vav’s combination of Chiropractic, Homeopathy and Hydrotherapy has worked wonders!”

Over the Moon This little rabbit’s back was twisted, leaving his back legs just dragging along the ground. Chiropractic treatment and homeopathy had him hopping about at full power again.

Afraid of Water No More! A 12½ year-old rescued Labrador/Collie now has bad arthritis. Taken to hydrotherapy elsewhere, he had a fright and panicked in water. Our patient hydrotherapy team got him back in the water, happily exercising and increasingly fit and pain-free.

Back in Perfect Balance This 11 year-old Westfalian gelding who had been doing really well in dressage tests but never recovered after a bout of flu. Several chiropractic treatments restored his performance and he went back to work and improved strongly.

No Need to Operate Now! Hydrotherapy exercises helped this dog recover from a cruciate ligament operation in one knee and prevented the need for the operating on the other side!

From ‘No Hope’ to Winning! A sore shoulder muscle/tendon prevented this Cross-Country prize-winner competing for so long that muscle-wastage was worsening the problem. Chiropractic, SCENAR, homeopathy and farriery – all contributed to get him back to qualify for the National Finals.

Missi’s got her Life Back Again! This prize-winning American Bulldog had an accident aht left her lame and unable to walk. After chiropractic and hydrotherapy, she’s got full use of her life again!

Life's a Canter for Trampus At the age of 39, he is thought to be the Island's oldest working horse. Equivalent in age to a 100-year-old human, he still goes on hacks three to four times a week thanks to regular chiropractic and massage treatment.

A Brazilian Tapir's Bathroom Accident Falling out of the bath hurt Nel's back, and chiropractic did the trick!

Football-Mad Fred Fred was an enormous six-month-old English Mastiff-Dog de Bordeaux–Rottweiler cross with hip dysplasia. Hydrotherapy, chiropractic, muscle-stimulation and homework all made a great difference.
