Equine Performance Solutions
Dr. Melissa Shaver
Veterinary Chiropractics, Acupuncture and Nutrition for your Horse

Dr. Melissa has been involved in horses most of her life, and has shown Arabians since the early 90’s. Early on, she found a strong desire to help ease suffering in animals in general. It was only natural to follow the progression to vet school. She graduated with Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from Oregon State and Washington State in 2006. From there she worked with a variety of large and small animals in general practice. After years of frustrating cases not responding favorably to a solely Western medicine approach, she decided to pursue continuing education in a more holistic approach. She has done a chiropractic internship under the tutelage of Dr. Mark DePaolo. She did acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine training through IVAS, one of the most respected governing bodies for acupuncture in America. Her goal is to embrace the best of both Western and Eastern worlds, and tailor the best treatment to each case for best results and patient control.
