HAVE YOU BEEN WONDERING WHAT MIGHT BE GOING ON WITH YOUR DOG?

Hip Dysplasia or ACL tears and wondering why? Have an older dog that has trouble getting the hind end off the ground?

April has the ability to easily teach you how to tell if your dog’s body is out of alignment. Did you know most dog body issues start as a puppy with collar training, running to the end of a tied lead and the force of hitting the end, or one dog grabbing the other by the neck in play? This will result in the Atlas and Axis going out of alignment and the long term effect is the pelvis going out of alignment causing most hip Dysplasia issues. In her video, she walks you through and explains how to help stretch, release and re-align these areas yourself.  This purchase comes with a copy of her Canine Musculoskeletal Unwinding Workbook.

• Has your dog been diagnosed with hip dysplasia?
• Does your dog run with both hind legs coming thru together at same time?
• When your dog sits does it sit straight on both haunches or does it drop to one side but?
• Does your dog have a hard time jumping up into car on or bed when it used to be easy?
• Does your older dog have a hard time getting the hind end up off the floor?
• These are all signs that this type of bodywork can help your dog be more comfortable in their body.
• No previous experience necessary.
• April takes you thru step by step of how to unwind your dogs musculoskeletal frame with soft effective techniques.
• This is not Chiropractic and does not replace your normal Veterinary care.

This video is for the horse lovers that already have my other horse bodywork videos, that teach the beginning of how to start working on horses. This video was designed to show how the moves are different on very young horses and follow a different order.

We are very excited to bring you this BRAND NEW unique video on how to work on foals and yearlings. This is information that is being missed in the equine industry, as most horse owners do not start bodywork until a horse is in training, or showing signs of body or lameness issues. This video is for the horse lovers that already have my other horse bodywork videos, that teach the beginning of how to start working on horses. This video was designed to show how the moves are different on very young horses and follow a different order.

The misalignment of the first rib has deep rippling effects on the horse’s body, with additional consequences and we are finding this is starting much earlier than we thought. The problems can start as early as two months of age, as demonstrated with the first foal in our video. At two months old, first rib misalignment also affects the hoof on the same side, and how it lands and loads. It also causes the shoulder on the same side to not move freely or correctly. We discuss how the inside hoof bar is being pushed forward and how the inside heel is being crushed because of this misalignment under the left shoulder. This will determine which hoof is always out forward when eating off the ground and starts the high-low hoof syndrome. This will also lead to premature arthritic conditions, like sidebone and ringbone, as well as saddle fitting and body issues. This foal will not want to take his left lead canter easily and it will be mislabeled as a weakness or training issue.

On the second foal in our video, we work on a yearling with first rib misaligned on both sides. He is presenting Ewe neck and Roach back because of this. This yearling also exhibits both front hooves turning out and the hocks are too close together presenting as ‘cow hocked’. This issue is actually stemming from the Psoas muscle being too tight, pulling the hocks too close together. On a competition horse this would involve hock injections to keep them sound before age 7. This is not his true Conformation, this is Posture, developing from the horse not being able to move either shoulder correctly.

Our Equine industry would benefit greatly by learning this bodywork and starting our program much earlier. This will add 10+ years to horses’ rideable years.
