What clients are saying:
"Camilla, I can't thank you enough for your help. I had almost given up hope before seeing you.
A shame that you are leaving Germany and thank you for referring your colleague." (translation)
Ute
"I wanted to tell you that my horse is doing fantastic! With that one treatment alone, I followed
your advice and wow! The lead-changes from left to right are now easy and we hope to compete
in M level this year!. Once again, THANK YOU!" (translation)
Anne-Christine
Hi Camilla!! Aberdeen is doing *amazing* and says thank you, lol. I think I put off chiro for so
long because I was not expecting to see such an improvement, let alone with just one session!!
She is much more forward, more movement in the hind end, moving more freely. My trainer was
amazed. I definitely need to have you see her again!! I'll email you to confirm a date :0)
Thanks,
Crystal
Hi Camilla,
Just to let you know that Gracie is doing amazing since you saw her. Her neck is finally equally
supple on both sides and her knee is looking much much better! I can't believe I hadn't noticed
that little detail... can you imagine all the problems you saved me by fixing that! Thank you so
much; you have to come down every year from now on because nobody else here can do what
you do.
Thanks again,
Stephanie
We appreciate the patience you had working a mouthy stallion! After Santiago's third treatment,
the hind legs starting to move the way he used to, that is wonderful! Now, we are ready to continue
collected work.
Anne-Marie
We very much appreciate your soft yet energetic approach. Silent Tune improved significantly
just after one treatment. We will miss you and hope to see you before June.
Maude
We were impressed by the patience and professionalism you showed and by the fact that we saw
improvement right after the first treatment. So we are pretty confident in your work and happy that
our horse had this positive experience.
Thanks a lot!

BIOGRAPHY
 | |  | |  | |  | |  |
Working in collaboration with your vet, Dr.
Stava provides a holistic approach to your
horse's health, whether you have an existing
problem or whether you choose to use the
benefits of chiropractic to improve
performance. She believes that only one-three
treatments are needed unless one is dealing
with a acute condition. In Equine Chiropractic,
the goal is to enhance the entire nervous
system (through adjustments of the structure -
although primarily the spine) so as to
promote optimal health and the body's natural
healing process.
A typical treatment begins with a thorough
evaluation where Dr. Stava observes your
horse on the lunge and possibly under
saddle. If possible, she would also like to see
your horse trotting away and towards her on
hard ground as well. She also palpates your
horse and looks for certain tell tale signs of
problems or possible problems. Finally,
based on the information you have told her
and that of her own evaluation, she performs a
full-body treatment which lasts between 40-60
minutes.
More about Dr. Stava
Dr. Stava has worked at top German clinics
including Tierklinik Domaine Karthaus – clinic
of choice of several top German trainers
including Klaus Balkenhol and the Klimke
family. Tierklinik Domaine Karthaus is also the
home of famous author and clinician Dr. Gerd
Heuschmann. Stava believes that a well
thought out training program can and should
be considered preventative medicine,
something which she is a strong supporter of.
She believes that every ride should increase
suppleness and promote the appropriate
development in our horses, much like
physiotherapy. Dr. Stava is working towards
U.S. Veterinary Certification
