摘要
CVMUA is a technique which evolved from investigations into both unsubstantiated equine and qualified human physiotherapy methodology. The result was a technique with a wide safety range and clinical responses of long duration. The results of single treatments of 86 horses were assessed. Severe cases may have further benefited from additional treatments, but this was not the subject of this study. Also, with its reliance on anesthesia, CVMUA became a veterinary-only technique. This then exposed the horse to a full clinical examination.
