PRECISION & PERFORMANCE
Integrative Equine Performance
Horizon Equine Performance Medicine was founded by Dr. Janelle Renschler as an evolution of her first business, Horizon Equine Integrative Medicine, operating since 2019. We bridge the gap between holistic care and sports medicine to keep horses functioning at their peak.
