I'd recommend Dr. Kevin McKenzie, a human chiro from Nelson, who works out of Slocan Park Medical Clinic on Thursdays. He is very good at horse chiro, and will see horses in the local and Pass Crk areas in the later afternoons on Thursdays. Call the Slocan Pk clinic to book him for a horse. He is very affordable. Equine massage practitioner Cyndi Bird (formerly of Pass Creek) comes here once a month from Sicamous, and is excellent. You just missed her as she was here last week. Check out her website "Open Gaits."

Sharon Edgar is AMAZING & really pinpoints everything going on easily & watches how the horse moves & discusses your concerns, etc etc. VERY thorough! My horses really enjoy her treatments & I get amazing results under saddle afterwards. She travels all over too, residing north of Nelson (I'm in Fruitvale).
