They had McTim this week. So did I!
Magic - very slight pelvis tilt so left hip forward. Absolutely nothing else needed doing. Bloomin brilliant, esp as last treatment was the day (and just before ) the hunt came and he mashed himself into the doorway, breaking it in the process. He truly has nine lives.
Dan - very tight left shoulder, as per originally. Pelvis slightly wonked and a bit of poll/neck needed doing. As (after Magic) he does the most work, he's getting a check up in a month to see if we can't knock this sore left shoulder/wither area on the head once and for all. It might be that its got worse cos he's doing more, or different rider, or it might just be going to anyway.
Max - OMG. A complete mess. Poll v bad, withers v bad, back v bad (almost to the point of a bit fused in lumbar region?) pelvis well and truly not where it should be. He couldn't stand square at all, but did so, almost with relief when his pelvis was done. He's getting another one in a month to see if its stayed right. Basically, I think its from holding himself off his feet for however long, but now feet are comfy, we should be able to straighten the rest of him out. She said pelvis would explain the lack of left canter. She said his back was more like a 19yr old that had worked hard all its life and never had any bodywork..... Poor lad, he likes spending my money for me!
Aero - poll needed doing, and lower back was very locked, but got un-locked quite nicely when the work was done. Pelvis a bit off. Otherwise ok. Not looking at him again unless anything happens.
Tig - Poll a bit, withers a lot, back a lot, pelvis a bit. Muscle wastage over left hind. Not worried about seeing him again though. Overall not bad given that his feet were bad for far long than poor Max's. But maybe Max's problem is that he's still growing and trying to compensate.
Me - left shoulder wonky forward. Lots of work on getting it straight and then neck locked and pelvis a bit out. Two sessions later, and with my shoulder covered in tape and it feels like it MIGHT stay put.... one more session next week to see....
