A preliminary study of the effect of manual chiropractic treatment on laterality of mechanical nociceptive thresholds (MNTs) in thoroughbred racehorses
Poster presentation at Saddle Research Trust Conference, Nottingham, Dec 2018
Highlights
- Support evidence that manual chiropractic treatment reduces sensitivity to pain along the thoracic and lumbar musculature with independent laterality effects at different sites.
- Further research is warranted with larger cohorts, repeatability and over a longer period
