Canine/Feline Chiropractic Care

Animal Chiropractic focuses on the restoration and preservation of heath by removing communication barriers and restoring normal function. Chiropractic care is not limited to an injured or sick pet. Healthy and athletic animals are ideal candidates for chiropractic examination and care. Maintaining proper structural alignment permits optimal function of the muscles, nerves and tissues supporting the joints, resulting in improved movement, stance, and flexibility. This alignment promotes increased agility, endurance, and overall performance. Broader benefits include superior immune function, healthier metabolism and a vibrant nervous system, facilitating your animal’s natural ability to heal. Chiropractic can enhance the quality of your animal’s life, ensuring active and healthy years.
