Chica is sound again after injury from 4yrs ago

Chica processing on herbs during her self-selection session

Chica is a much-loved 17yr old Quarter horse in Arkansas. Unfortunately, she had a 'run in' with a chicken coop which left her with a nasty injury on her right hind fetlock which despite treatment from a couple of veterinary establishments, after a while became thick and stiff. If and when Chica cantered, she noticeably limped afterwards.

Her owner Sharla, was particularly concerned about the pressure the other limbs were under, as they needed to compensate in order to keep the weight off of her damaged hind.

Sharla contacted us after a friend of hers told her about the AZ approach and after filling out her feedback form, we sent over a Whitethorn Herbals Mini Kit full of extracts most likely selected by a horse with the issues that Chica was presenting with. As soon as they were received a session was booked and Carly worked with her owner through zoom guiding her through the session.

Chica fully engaged from the get-go and responded well. One of her key selections was Arnica CO2 - one of the most powerful extracts in our range that clears the shock and pain out of a historical injury.  She also selected Wintergreen, Peppermint and Yarrow essential oils - also strong analgesics.

Sharla continued to offer for the following week of the session and reported a week later in our catch up call that Chica had a better demeanour, felt her eyes were brighter and she was cantering and trotting more than she had since the injury.
Ten days later from our catch up call and we received a lovely message from a very excited Sharla, reporting that Chica had cantered 3 times that day with absolutely no sign of a limp afterwards.  And a final update this evening informs us that Chica has now been reintergrated to the main herd.

Good job Team Chica!
