Approach

Before treatment, horses should be calm and should not have worked hard just beforehand; dogs should not have done a lot of running or playing shortly beforehand. The animal is examined and the problem areas are treated. A treatment usually takes about three quarters of an hour; the duration depends on the problem.

• A horse is preferably treated in its stable
• Dogs are preferably treated on the floor
• After treatment, the animal should rest; horses should not be ridden for a few days
