Frequently asked questions
Do I have to contact my Vet for consent?
Not necessarily. This is something the Equionics team can do. All we ask is that you complete our consent form will the the necessary details and leave the rest to us.
Do I have to be present for a treatment?
We appreciate that with busy working lives it is not always possible for you to be available during the appointment. If this is the case, all we ask is that you give us prior notice. Therefore we can ensure we have an additional handler. If the appointment requires that your horse be seen ridde, it is your responsibility to ensure a suitable subsitutute rider is available. Equionics will not ride your horse.
How quickly will my horse recover?
One of the most popular questions and most difficult to answer. There are many factors to consider in a treatment for any injury or issue. How long has the horse been having the problem? Has anything changed to resolve the problem from happening again? How healthy is the horse? How accomodating is the horse? As well as what treatment the horse is actually having.
I worry about cross contamination and diseases like strangles
Rest assured so do we. At Equionics we change uniform every time we move onto a new yard and ensure that not only ourselves are risk free but also our equipment. All equipment post treatment is washed down with Virkon.
