Animal Chiropractic
What is Animal Chiropractic?
Today, animal chiropractic is undergoing rapid growth. Pet chiropractic involves using spinal adjustments in animal species. Performed on dogs, horses, and cats, chiropractic manipulations can be suitable for vertebrate species. The techniques used in veterinary chiropractic are similar to those applied to human patients.
Chiropractic care aims at fixing musculoskeletal problems in dogs and other animals. But, spinal problems and other conditions such as digestive issues respond well to animal chiropractic.
If you feel like your animal companion needs help with some of those issues, we will be happy to see both of you at Inner Compass Chiropractic.
Our Services
Similarly to people, pets often experience problems with the musculoskeletal system, expressed in hip dysplasia, stiffness, intervertebral disk disease, and other unwanted conditions. The good news is that these conditions respond well to pet chiropractic.
Animal chiropractic care is a preventive treatment aimed at correcting the root cause of the problem rather than treating the symptoms. Chiropractic adjustments with the appropriate force applied can restore the proper spinal alignment and the optimal range of motion in your canine companion. When abnormalities exist in your dog’s spinal alignment, the pet’s whole body functions optimally and can heal itself.
Chiropractic can be helpful for pets of different ages and lifestyles — young puppies, senior dogs, working dogs, and animal athletes.
Here's what we offer:
- Chiropractic adjustment (manual and activator)
- Vibration Therapy
- Laser Therapy
- Stretching
- Lifestyle Advice
Whatever applies to your pet, we are happy to see both of you at our Inner Compass Chiropractic clinic!
Conditions Treated
A doctor will easily spot the musculoskeletal problems that your pet has and apply chiropractic adjustment to restore proper alignment and movement and reduce inflammation in the affected areas. Restored alignment, in turn, contributes to improving the central nervous system’s functioning and enables an animal’s body to heal itself from unwanted conditions. A range of conditions in dogs responds favorably to chiropractic treatment.
Here are the common ones:
- Hip dysplasia
- Spondylosis
- Osteoarthritis
- Stiffness
- Cervical instability
- Intervertebral disc disease
- Musculoskeletal weakness
- Acute and chronic back and neck pain
- Traumatic injuries
- Post-surgery recovery
- Digestive issues
