Sport Horses Medicine Therapy - Successful Cases
Ruffian Stables
Since 1986, we have successfully treated
hundreds of horses. Here are a few examples:
Bennequick - A 17.1 hands gelding
with a bowed tendon was treated with therapy equipment
and diet supplements, and after 5 months started to jump
again to place second at Fair Hill in the preliminary
division.
Directing - An allowance runner
who came to us for therapy after tendon splitting surgery
at New Bolton Center. Directing was back in full
training in four months compared to the usual eight.
Crafty Belle - Owned by Jimmy Iselin
in New York, Crafty Belle suffered an odd fracture
that defied conventional treatments. Veterinarians recommended
that the horse would be useful only as a broodmare. Treated
twice a day for three to four hours, Crafty Belle
returned to competition to win five races in a row.
Lenape Way - A steeplechaser trained
by Taylor Jackson,he was a nervous wreck and diagnosed
with ulcers. Placed on Fisher's specially modified nutritional
program, the gelding showed improvement in his blood test
in five days.
D'Accord - Owned and competed by
dressage master Eicke Von Velthiem, D'Accord had
been diagnosed with a severely torn suspensory on the
lateral and medial side. Veterinarians suggested that
the horse should be donated for research. After one year
of therapy, D'Accord went back to compete at his
previous level.
Madam President - A fancy show hunter
that had torn suspensories in both front legs. After struggling
many months with conventional prescriptions, she was sent
to Ruffian Stables and healed in record time.
