When is Veterinary Spinal Manipulation or Chiropractic indicated?
These modalities help to rebalance the muscles of the body. This is particularly important in performance dogs and horses, pets who have undergone surgery, or pets who have sustained an injury. A chiropractic exam includes posture and gait analysis as well as static and motion palpation of the spine. Frequency of treatment depends on several factors. Although many patients can be helped with one treatment, chronic conditions that have been present for some time, or older or overweight pets may require a series of treatment.
