Animal chiropractic involves adjustment of
subluxations of the spinal column, extremity joints and skull
bone junctions called cranial sutures.
A chiropractic adjustment is defined as a short lever, high
velocity controlled thrust by hand or instrument that is directed
at specific articulations to correct vertebral subluxations.
A vertebral subluxation is defined as a spinal misalignment
or joint dysfunction resulting in neurological or biochemical
dysfunction.
Animal chiropractic does not dispense medications, perform
surgery, inject medications or attempt to replace necessary
traditional veterinary care.
Chiropractic is a drug-free approach to pet health care.
It deals with the nervous system housed inside the spinal
column and with keeping the nervous system healthy for the
benefit of all body systems including the musculoskeletal
system.
