What is Animal Chiropractic?
My Friend published this article and thought it was worth posting:
Animal
Chiropractic is a field of animal health care that focuses on the health
of the neuro-musculo-skeletal system. Nerves control everything that
happens in your animals, and anything affecting the nervous system
resonates throughout the entire body. When nerves become entrapped, this
can interfere with the signaling to their destination tissue, including
muscles and organs. As this occurs, the health of your animal can be
affected, resulting in stiffness, tension, pain and even organ
dysfunction. Additionally, when normal movement is affected it can
impact your animal’s wellbeing and quality of life.
The goal
of an animal chiropractor is to restore function and mobility to the
bones of the spine, known as 'vertebrae' in an effort to re-establish
nerve communication. This allows the body to perform at its optimum
potential. Animal chiropractors use their hands to identify areas of
restriction and apply a precise thrust on the immobile vertebrae in an
effort to restore motion and remove nerve interference. When nerves
efficiently communicate with all the structures in your animals’ bodies,
healing and recovery results.
Animal
Chiropractic is not meant to replace traditional veterinary care. It is
not an alternative treatment, but rather an integrative method that,
when used in conjunction with good traditional veterinary care, will
provide years of healthy living. This is the beginning of a
contemporary, comprehensive approach to your animal’s healthcare. It is
an effective and valuable means of restoring and maintaining strength,
vigor and well-being. By exploring and treating the root causes of your
animal’s aches, pains and illnesses, you will ensure maximum
improvement, top performance and an exceptional quality of life for the
animal companions we love. Have a comment? Join the conversation!
