Does anyone know if there is any significance or issues with a horse that supposedly has uneven sacroiliac joints? I had a chiropractor examine my horse basically just to keep him moving well(he is three and 1/2 foot equitation horse) and she states his si joints are uneven. They look the same to me.

Hello daniela,
I would suggest it they look the same to you there is no problem. For a image of what uneven si joints look like see, References » Equine Illustrations » Leg Anatomy and Conformation » Sacroiliac Joint and Hunter Bumps.
