What is Animal Chiropractic
What is Animal Chiropractic?
Animal Chiropractic is the treatment of joint misalignments to affect the neuro-musculo-skeletal systems. The spine is a very complex region and provides the framework for the body. Through this framework run the nerves of the nervous system. These nerves control the body and all its functions. Misalignments in this area affect the nerves, muscle, ligament and joints, leading to pain and dysfunction. Treatment of these misalignments allows the body to fully use its natural ability to heal itself.
