CuraCore’s Evidence-Based Acupuncture Contributes to Successful Treatment of Chronic Laminitis in Friesian Cross Gelding
FORT COLLINS, CO, UNITED STATES, October 28, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Chronic laminitis, a debilitating condition affecting a horse's hooves, can often lead to significant discomfort and lameness. However, advancements in integrative medicine have provided new pathways for treatment. CuraCore, known for its science-based approach to veterinary acupuncture and integrative medicine, highlights the case of Freija, a Friesian cross gelding successfully treated for chronic laminitis using veterinary acupuncture.
The case, documented by Dr. Christina Mohos, illustrates how evidence-based acupuncture can play a vital role in reducing pain and improving function in horses suffering from chronic conditions. Dr. Mohos, a practitioner of veterinary acupuncture, used an integrative approach, incorporating acupuncture and therapeutic exercise, to support Freija’s recovery.
The Case of Freija: A Path to Recovery
Freija, a 9-year-old Friesian cross gelding, was presented to her veterinarian with chronic lameness associated with right hind limb discomfort and signs of laminitis. She struggled to maintain a canter and exhibited noticeable discomfort during movement. After being diagnosed with chronic laminitis, Dr. Mohos developed an acupuncture treatment plan to address the condition.
Acupuncture points were selected based on Freija's specific clinical presentation, targeting areas that would reduce inflammation and alleviate discomfort. Treatments were conducted weekly, and over the course of several sessions, Freija showed significant improvement. Following the first session, Freija's stride length increased noticeably, and after the second session, she was able to hold the canter without falling out of gait.
By the third acupuncture session, Freija’s owner noted improved flexibility and a reduction in tension along her back. Freija's overall condition improved, allowing her to return to more consistent work with less resistance and discomfort.
Treatment Approach
Dr. Mohos employed a multi-modal treatment plan that included acupuncture, exercise therapy, and close monitoring of Freija’s progress. The acupuncture treatments focused on improving circulation, reducing pain, and enhancing Freija’s natural healing processes. These sessions helped Freija regain her mobility, strength, and comfort, ultimately leading to her improved performance and quality of life.
