Dog Knee ligament injury - animal chiropractor south shore boston,boston,cape cod, north shore boston

The most common ligament in the knee that tears is the cranial cruciate ligament. When this occurs ur dog may carry the affected leg off the ground or walk on his toe. Not all ligament tears require surgery. Sometimes PRP may work best which is a procedure that uses ur dog's blood and platlets that are concentrated and injected back into the knee to regrow the ligament. It is imperative that ur dog have chiropractic care to preserve the other knee and front end integrity since compensation can injure other areas of ur dog.
There are specific rehab exercises and cold laser to speed healing.

Please contact Dr Bruce at 781-337-1180 or email at Indekchiropractic@gmail.com

COLD LASER info
In a nutshell if you purchase a cold laser it is important to know the Power in mW. If it is low like in the 5mW range you need to treat the area for a very long time compared to the 500mW type. Insufficient treatment will occur in the low mW types and you are wasting your money and time. You also need to be aware of the anatomy to maximize your time in use. Your Wavelength is also important. So you can see it is not as simple as point and shoot.

Class 1 & 2 lasers are can be purchased for use at home over-the-counter for use on humans and they have a maximum power of 5mW continuous. Several manufacturers make higher power lasers that qualify as a class 1 or 2 by pulsing the laser. Without a recommendation for a health care provider like the ones listed above, a pulsing laser is the best option. Just don't waste your time buying anything that looks like a laser pointer.
Class 3 lasers are designed for practitioners but can be purchased for use on humans at home with the recommendation of a health care provider. They can be purchased without any restrictions for use on pets and horses. Class 3 lasers must be less than 500mW per laser diode continuous output. Several manufacturers have higher power units that use multiple diodes that have TOTAL power level in the class 4 range but they are safe enough to qualify as a class 3b device because they have less chance of eye damage and no chance of tissue heating damage. Many laser manufacturers have a doctor on staff who can write a recommendation letter to meet the requirements so we can sell you a laser.

Dog Leg Lameness - Animal Chiropractor South Shore Boston-Boston-Cape Cod- North Shore Boston

If your dog has lameness in the legs and your Vet has cleared your dog of any disease process then it may be caused by Subluxation in the spine. I teach at the Options for Animals Chiropractic College and can tell you first hand that your Vet has no knowledge of Spinal Subluxations causing Lameness.
The Vets that take our course are stunned when they learn about this condition. As a Certified Animal Chiropractor I am trained to find these Subluxations and correct them along with Cold Laser so the lameness is corrected. Post exercises that I will give you are also important.
There are Chiropractors in the field that will offer to adjust your dog, please ask them if they have been certified by the American Vet Chiropractic Assoc. If not then they are not trained and will possibly hurt your dog. The training is 215 post grad hours with a Certification Exam. There are Docs out there teaching weekend courses to do Animal Chiropractic and these courses are dangerous to your animal. If the chiropractor is using an Activator to adjust your dog please do not allow this. This device is designed for humans and not animals and is a sham when used on your animal. The AVCA will not allow this tool to be used in certification exams.

Did u know chiropractic does more than treat back pain in people and animals? Chiropractic evaluates the spine for non-symptomatic nerve inflammation
and these nerves control all body function. So the adjustment removes nerve irritation and improves function of all systems and tissues in the body.

Animals with Back Pain the tip of the problem - Animal Chiropractor South Shore Boston - Cape Cod - Boston - North Shore Boston

Back pain is the end result of an issue. Animals are stoic and do not show pain until the problem has progressed. When you have your animal adjusted the aim is to correct the cause of the pain not just relieve the pain. This will normally take more that one visit since as stated the problem has persisted usually before the animal has shown symptoms.
Please call Dr Bruce at 781-337-1180 or email at indekchiropractic@gmail.com
to schedule an appointment. I make house calls and barn calls.

dogs with back pain - chiropractor for dogs south shore boston - boston - cape cod

Dogs are very stoic so by the time they show symptoms of back pain the issue has advanced. Typical Vet diagnosed as disc problems, which is not the most common cause. I teach Vets at the Options for Animals Chiropractic College and I can tell you first hand that the Vets tell me that biomechanics of the spine and function are not taught in Vet school only extreme trauma, cancer, and disc problems are discussed so if your dog has no fractures or cancer then they deduce disc problems.

Animal chiropractors are trained to diagnose mechanical dysfunction of the spine as well as the nerve pinching that will occur. I have been adjusting dogs for years and I can tell you that spinal subluxations where the spine is stuck in motion and causing nerve irritation is the most common cause of back pain in house pet dogs all the way up to the high performance agility dog.

Please call Dr Bruce at 781-337-1180 or email at indekchiropractic@gmail.com
to schedule an appointment. I do house calls all over New England.

Please only access Certified Animal Chiropractors such as from the American Vet Chiropractic Assoc. If your Dr is not certified and is doing it for free or a charge then you are risking your dog's health as well as your liability.

There are many Drs that feel that since they adjust people why not animals. Well first of all the anatomy is different and they can hurt your dog. To be certified you must be a Lic chiropractor or vet and attende a 215 hour course in animal chiropractic and take a written and practical certification exam. This is all done to protect your animal so please do not let your Dr adjust without the training, it is just a bad idea!

Horse with back pain as well as Dog with back pain

VSC stands for Vertebral Subluxation Complex. The most common cause for back pain!
Restricted movement of the spinal bones called vertebra occur at the level of the Facet Joints as seen in this picture. The Facet Joints are literally the hinges that your spine moves about. When these Facet Joints become restricted they can irritate spinal nerves which are the main information highway from the brain to the organs and muscles as well as from the organs and muscles to the brain.
VSC can cause back pain or not. VSC can exist without symptoms and secretly diminish health of organs and muscles until enough damage is done and symptoms occur.
Symptoms can be lameness, sluggish behavior, outright pain, or organ dysfunction.
Cause of VSC can be trauma, age, repeated physical stress such as a poor fitting saddle improper harness, not warming up enough before activity, demanding sports such as dressage, jumping, agility.

lame dog - Dog Chiropractor South Shore Boston, Cape Cod, Boston - Animal Chiropractor

Lameness in dogs can be caused by a back issue, shoulder, hip, or paw.  Many times owners will take their dog to the Vet and the Vet will not find any cause for the lameness and prescribe Meds only. After many years of providing Animal chiropractic to dogs I can tell you that the back or shoulder is often the cause.

Dogs carry 60 percent of their body wt on the front end and often the shoulder can be subluxated [stuck in motion] causing lameness. If the back is involved then more wt shifts to the front legs and thus lameness.

Back issues that are very common are Subluxations in the spine.
This condition is where the spinal joints get stuck in motion and irritate nerves and muscles. This condition is not treated by your vet which is why an Animal Chiropractor is essential.

Please call me with questions or to schedule an appointment. I make house calls.

IVDD in dogs - chiropractor for dogs Boston, South Shore Boston, Cape Cod

I am an adjunct professor at Options for Animals Chiropractic College and have a practice in the greater Boston Area. I only make house calls for the optimum comfort of your dog. Please call Dr Bruce Indek at 781-337-1180 or email at indekchiropractic@gmail.com
to schedule an appointment. IVDD needs to be treated quickly for the best outcome.

Dogs with Disc problems - dog chiropractor south shore boston and cape cod



Image result for picture of dog disc problemYou cannot see disc problems on an Xray. The disc is made of cartilage and gel. Xrays can only show bone and the disc space but not the actual disc, so please do not let someone tell you they diagnosed the disc bulge or herniation with an Xray.

Disc problems typically occur in the neck or low back. In the low back the most common area is the location of the spine where the ribs end and the lumbar spine begins. Disc problems in the neck will cause your dog not to eat or drink easily without pain and weakness on the front legs. Disc problems in the low back can cause rear leg lameness, back pain, roached back (rounded) as well as loss of bladder and bowel control.

Treatment of crate rest and meds only is not very effective. You need to have your dog receive chiropractic adjustments above and below the disc problem, acupuncture and rehab. Over the past 35 years I have helped many dogs regain their health and leg function. Please call Dr Bruce Indek at 781-337-1180 or email at indekchiropractic@gmail.com
to schedule an appointment. ALL APPOINTMENTS ARE DONE AT YOUR HOME.
