Animal chiropractic is that science and art which uses the inherent recuperative powers of the body and deals with the relationship between the nervous system and the spinal column and it’s associated structures. The role of these relationships are important for the restoration and maintenance of health.

Chiropractors focus on the interactions between neurological mechanisms and the bio-mechanics of the spine. Therapy is directed to the vertebral column to alter the progression of disease processes.

The structural integrity of your pet’s spine plays a major factor in the health, well being and longevity of your animal. Your animal’s chiropractor is a bio-mechanical specialist who is trained to diagnose and treat joint dysfunction primarily in the spine.

Detection and correction of these areas of joint fixation allow the nervous system to function at it’s most optimal level. The nervous system is what supplies the body with energy. If the spinal segments are compromised in an way the rest of the body suffers in it’s need for energy to heal.

Adjustments are specific corrective forces that are applied in an anatomically prescribed direction which in turn restores proper motion, proprioception and musculo-skeletal balance in the body. The chiropractor may also use other ancillary procedures to help reduce soft tissue antagonism. Use of ultrasound, muscle stimulation, massage and myofascial techniques may be applied to support the adjustive process.
