Animal Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a natural, holistic therapy that supports the body's ability to heal itself.
​
It focuses on detecting, correcting, and preventing problems in the spine and nervous system—two key areas that affect how the whole body functions.
​
Chiropractors perform gentle, specific adjustments to the spine to restore balance and improve communication between the brain and the body. When the spine and nervous system work well, so do the muscles, joints, and organs. This can help reduce pain, improve movement, and boost overall health and performance.
​
The main difference between chiropractic care for humans and animals is anatomy—but the goal is the same: to help each individual function at their full potential.
​
Chiropractic takes a vitalistic and holistic approach. Rather than treating symptoms with drugs or surgery, chiropractors aim to find and address the root cause, supporting the body as a whole, interconnected system.
​
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.
