New equine rehab facility open in Florida

Ocala, Fla.

-- Injured horses have a new place to rest their hooves in the sunshine state.

The Sanctuary recently opened its doors to provide 40,000 square feet of rehabilitation and equine sport therapy services. Offerings at the central Florida facility include a saltwater swimming pool and cold spa, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, massage therapy, acupuncture, a farrier and dental services.

Some of the therapies are exclusive to the center while others are standard therapies that can't be accessed in the area because of distance or a high demand at existing facilities, according to the treatment center.
