Animal Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a natural therapy that appeals to the body's self-healing ability, it works the same for humans and animals.
​
The object of chiropractic is the detection, correction and prevention of problems affecting the spine and the nervous system.
​
The main difference between chiropractic for animals and humans is the anatomy. The principle remain the same: Perform specific adjustments to the spine to optimise the function and integrity of the nervous system. This allows the entire body, muscles, joints and organs to function optimally.
​
When the spine and nervous system are properly adjusted and well balanced, not only does pain and other symptoms often stop, but performance and overall well-being also increase.
​
Chiropractic is suitable for all animals of all ages and fitness levels.
​
More information about animal chiropractic can be found on the International Academy of Veterinary Chiropractic's website.
