I hope to meet you all at the C5 Arena Tack Swap and Vendor Show this Saturday Feb 21,2025.
My name is Dr. Elizabeth Bixby. I graduated from ISU College of Veterinary Medicine in 1995. While there I completed the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society course and three years ago completed the Options for Animals Chiropractic school in Wellsville, KS and passed the International Veterinary Chiropractic Association exam.
Since that time I have been amazed at what the addition of acupuncture, chiropractic and Magnawave PEMF can bring to traditional western veterinary medicine. When we compliment and free the nervous system to communicate with the brain, the connection yields improved balance, muscle strength, stronger immunity, and faster return to competition after stress or injury!
Hypoint Veterinary Health,LLC is located in Nashua, IA. I am blessed to practice in the most wonderful place in the world!

SEE YOU SOON!

Thank you to my sweet friend Susan… reminding me to listen and hold still for a minute. For some it may be the ocean waves or raindrops, but for us the calm of listening to our friends in their contentment brings calm. Enjoy your Saturday.

Chiropractic care and acupuncture can be incredibly beneficial for cows and calves during calving season.

Calving season brings hope and excitement for the season ahead. It can also bring heartache when a calf fails to thrive or a cow sustains injury associated with giving birth.

CALVES

🐮A difficult birth involving a tough pull can result in a calf being unable to stand and therefore unable to nurse and receive colostrum.

🐮Delivery requiring a traumatic pull can cause the spine, pelvis and hips to have subluxations. These misalignments can cause neurological deficits that affect the calf’s balance and muscle strength and coordination. Chiropractic adjustment can realign the spine and allow the nervous system to connect properly to the body.

🐮Restoring nerve function helps heal muscle damage by improving circulation. This helps the calf recover and feel better faster. It is critical to have the newborn up and nursing as soon as possible.

COWS-Mom’s are at risk too!

🐮Calving injuries that occur for the cow are most often due to nerve damage to the hind limbs. A calve stuck in the birth canal can can damage the sciatic nerve causing the cow to knuckle over at the fetlock on one or both sides. The other common nerve to be damaged is the obturator nerve. This is more severe and is presented as the cow that laterally hyperextends the hind limbs - she splays out. She can damage the adductor muscles and even dislocate the hips in the struggle.

🐮Combining chiropractic care and acupuncture can help these animals restore to function. Proper alignment along with stimulation of the nerves -often with electroacupuncture - can decrease inflammation, improve circulation and release endorphins for pain management.
(Electo-acupuncture involves placing very small needles at precise points. Electrodes are attached to the needles. Very low levels of electricity are sent to the needles to stimulate the point and the muscle group associated with the point. Usually the electroacupuncture unit is powered by small 5volt battery.)

🐮❤️
Supporting the cow calf pair in this time post-partum is critical to their survival. Utilizing chiropractic adjustments and acupuncture to realign the nervous system and balance the body can help the pair get off to a positive start!

If you have horses, you know to expect the unexpected! This poor girl accidentally got her head stuck in a gate. She has facial nerve paralysis. She is able to eat and drink, but her face is paralyzed below her eye. When researching a treatment, electroacupuncture was the first choice. Include Dolly in your prayers ❤️. There is no guarantee she will recover, but we are sure trying! Will keep you posted on this journey!

Why would we perform acupuncture, magnawave and chiropractic on a 5 month old heifer?
Calving can be a tough thing for cows and their calves. The birth could be difficult, the calf could be dropped on a hard surface or any of a number of scenarios could cause the calf to start life with small subluxations. These small subluxations can lead to abnormal neurological and musculoskeletal development. These animals are growing at a fast pace. It is important for ALL of the muscles to receive proper innervation to develop simultaneously. The brain must be able to communicate with all of the muscles of the body.
Chiropractic care helps improve gait, balance and allows the animal to be more active and playful supporting healthy growth and development.
