About this course
How can you arrive at a secure diagnosis of headshaking? How can you differentiate the behavioural from the genuine cases? What is the gold standard work up and treatment options?
Headshaking presents a difficult diagnostic dilemma for all equine practitioners. Which cases are behavioural, which have another painful focus and which are genuine trigeminal mediated headshakers? Without a practical definitive test, a careful stepwise process of elimination must be undertaken. This course will take the delegate through that process with case examples. We will also look at the treatment options for trigeminal mediated headshakers.
Why do this course?
The course is aimed at equine practitioners looking to advance their knowledge of this difficult subject to equip them with a logical and stepwise approach to headshaking cases.
