PLEASE do NOT shoe your horses!! Horse shoes create anatomical damage to hooves, legs, and spines. Horse shoes are completely unnecessary today. Horse shoes create many chronic health problems. There are Olympic horses going shoeless these days, so get those shoes off permanently! It will take a normal horse at least a month to not be ouchy once they contact real ground again, so be patient.

Medical Conditions
Have you ever heard the phrase, healthy as a horse?" No longer true. What has changed? Even in the 1800's vets visited a barn rarely. Now, visits with the vets seem nonstop.
MOST chronic health problems will resolve on their own if the horse can live out in a large, healthy pasture with some woods/trees if they are in a small herd of horse friends, but it may take a year or two. If you don't like what the vets are predicting, then try this option.
Toxic Heavy Metals: (Notice how high this is in the list)
Aluminum from grain. Metals from watering devices and water sources.
Mercury from vaccination preservatives.

Muscle/Skeletal

This book teaches the OWNER how to do the muscle/ligament source-point massage that will work wonders for the horse.
Vaccinations:
Titers are acceptable, legally, in place of most vaccines. Others should be checked by titers. The other preservatives that are in the vials to preserve vaccination shelf life makes these injections quite dangerous in the long term. Please research this topic before vaccinating. Most vaccinations are NOT necessary for animals who are kept healthy and happy.
