If you have ever been to a chiropractor then the easy answer is that animal
chiropractic is the same thing applied to animals. Chiropractic therapy is adjustment to the musculo-skeletal system to realign the body to optimal neuromuscular functioning. All of the body’s functions are controlled by signals passing thru the nervous system. These signals allow for proper functioning of every part of th

e body. This includes everything from proper functioning of the limbs, to healing injuries and even proper tissue and organ health and function. When any part of the nervous system is impaired or “pinched” in any way it restricts the nerve signal from firing properly. This can decrease the full functioning of the muscle, organ or any tissue being innervated by those nerves. Chiropractic therapy works to locate these areas of impingement and “adjust” the body to proper alignment to assure renewed function and health of the body.
