Rehabilitation Services
Pickering Equine proudly offers a myriad of services to its clients to create customized rehabilitation programs tailored to each individual athlete. Boarders and ship-ins alike are welcome.
We value input from trainers, owners, and their veterinarians. We look forward to working with our patients and their team members, including consulting veterinarians.
Equipment
Rehabilitation plans are tailored specifically to the needs of each horse. Generally, a majority of the equipment will be utilized daily. Use of the Bemer, Relax & Sun, dry, and water treadmills are included in the boarding package. Use of veterinary equipment or services are available upon request for an additional charge.
