Introducing Shahin:

Shahin graduated from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic with a Master’s degree in Chiropractic. He is registered with both the British Chiropractic Association and the General Chiropractic Council.

Shahin is committed to ongoing learning and has completed further qualification in dry needling and kinseology taping.

Initially, he pursued this passion in computor programming and became a software engineer at the age of 23. However, he realised that he had a stronger desire to work directly with people and make a meaningful impact on their lives. Given his own sports-related injuries and interest in conservative treatments, Shahin found chiropractic particularly fascinating and decided to start a new career in this field.

In his spare time, Shahin enjoys playing football and tennis. During his university years, he played on the football team. Nowadays, he prefers to play in a more casual and friendly setting with friends.

🦴 What is Arthritis? Understanding Your Pet's Joint Health 🦴

With studies showing 20% of adult dogs and 60% of adult horses having arthritic changes, most of us have heard the term.

So what does this mean 👩‍⚕️

What is Arthritis?
Arthritis is a condition that affects the joints, causing inflammation, pain, and stiffness.
It involves the deterioration of cartilage, the cushioning material between joints, which leads to bones rubbing against each other. This friction causes discomfort and limits movement.

Signs That May Indicate Arthritis:
🔹 Limping or favouring a limb
🔹 Difficulty getting up or lying down
🔹 Decreased activity
🔹 Swelling or tenderness in joints
🔹 Changes in behaviour or mood

How We Can Help:
As animal chiropractors, we use gentle techniques to:
🔸 Mobilise joints, reducing pain and improving function
🔸 Stretches to enhance mobility and flexibility
🔸 Massage to ease surrounding muscles
🔸 Provide exercises to help maintain a range of movement

Understanding arthritis is the first step in providing your pet with the care they need to live a happier, more comfortable life.

📞 Contact us today to learn more about how chiropractic care can benefit your pet.

✨ Proper saddle fit is crucial for your horse's health and performance! 🐴✨

As a chiropractor, I've seen firsthand how an ill-fitting saddle can lead to discomfort, poor posture and movement, and even long-term health issues for your horse.

🔹 **Why is Saddle Fit Important?**
- Ensures even weight distribution, reducing the risk of pressure sores.
- Prevents muscle strain and spinal issues.
- Enhances comfort and performance, allowing your horse to move freely and confidently.

🔹 **How Often Should You Check Saddle Fit?**
- Ideally, every 6 months, or more frequently if your horse is experiencing growth, muscle changes, or weight fluctuations.
- Regular checks help catch and address any issues early.

🌟 Remember, a well-fitted saddle is not just about performance, but also about your horse's overall well-being. If you’re unsure about your saddle fit, consult with a professional. Don't forget to check their qualifications! 🌟

As part of your horses assessment, we always look at their topline, heres why!

1. **Balance and Stability**: A strong and well-developed topline helps maintain balance and stability, allowing the horse to carry itself and a rider efficiently.

2. **Performance**: Horses with a good topline can move more freely and perform better in various disciplines.

3. **Comfort and Health**: A healthy topline supports the spine and reduces the risk of back pain, muscle strain, and other musculoskeletal issues.

4. **Flexibility and Range of Motion**: A well-developed topline improves the horse's flexibility and range of motion, essential for executing complex movements and maintaining agility.

5. **Weight Distribution**: A strong topline ensures proper weight distribution, which is crucial for preventing injuries and promoting long-term soundness.

6. **Aesthetics**: A good topline contributes to the overall appearance and conformation of the horse, which is important in show and competition settings.

Help your horse maintain a good topline with regular exercise, proper nutrition, and chiropractic care. 🐴

Your furry friend's health is our top priority! 🐶

If your pet is currently under veterinary care for a condition or injury, we will ask for their Vet’s consent before commencing Chiropractic treatment, this is to ensure your pet is receiving the best cohesive care from the start. 👩‍⚕️

However, during chiropractic visits, we sometimes discover conditions that need a vet’s expertise further down the line.

Here’s why we might refer you back to your vet:

✔️ Underlying Medical Conditions: If we notice signs of illnesses or infections, a vet's diagnosis and treatment are crucial.

✔️ Acute Injuries: Injuries that may indicate structural damage or changes require immediate veterinary assessment to prevent further damage.

✔️ Specialized Tests: X-rays, blood work, or other diagnostic tests can help pinpoint issues beyond chiropractic scope.

We strongly believe in always working together for your pet's best health! 🐕‍🦺🩹

As a mobile service, I often hear from owners that they can struggle to take their dog to the vets if they don't drive themselves or have mobility issues that makes it more difficult. If so, it helps to know, there are options! Check out this local Pet Taxi Service 🚕
