Exclusively Equine Acupuncture and Chiropractic

Dr. Blackwood offers quality service in Black Forest Colorado and surrounding areas. To provide the best possible care, Sandra Blackwood, DVM, CVSMT has chosen to limit her practice to equine acupuncture and chiropractic. Instead of dividing her attention between all aspects of equine medicine, Dr. Blackwood specializes in chiropractic/acupuncture/sports medicine cases. During any chiropractic case, Dr. Blackwood typically lunges the horse as well as screens for stomach / intestinal pain and looks for other health problems to identify underlying reasons for the horse’s discomfort and optimize your horse’s health and well-being.

Dr. Blackwood received her undergraduate degree in biology from Grinnell University, graduating Summa Cum Laude.
