What is Animal Chiropractic?
Animal chiropractic for dogs, cats and horses? Absolutely, and this is the short list of pets and animals who can directly benefit from a regimented care program at Scituate Harbor Chiropractic (SHC). Simply put, animal chiropractic is a natural, drug-free addition to your pet's overall health care. In addition to regular veterinary care, chiropractic care can increase comfort, and add quality to your pet's performance, movement, and flexibility by restoring or improving a normal range of motion to their joints.

Chiropractic care is especially helpful in cases where an injury has occurred that has caused a physical upset to the joints, muscles or blocked nerves. Chiropractic is also used to help pets who have had falls, or other blunt traumas, arthritis, spinal disease, and when general movement becomes stiff or painful.
Animal chiropractic care looks at the issues of imbalances, in the following three areas:

Skeletal System and Joints:
Bones and joints form a flexible configuration designed to provide pain-free movement when they are in normal health and alignment.

Healthy muscles always allow the joints to move freely and should be free of spasm, pain, weakness and degenerative changes.

Nerves are the "hard-wiring" of your pet's body. They dictate the functions of the body as well as control communication between the brain and all other areas of the body. When nerves are pinched, flow is reduced which leads to lower performance levels and sometimes pain.

Just like humans, uncorrected subluxations can cause distress and disharmony to the body. But with animal chiropractic care from Tranberg Animal Chiropratic, in conjunction with your animal's veterinarian care, you'll discover a natural, drug-free approach for your pet horse, dog and cat; farm animals such as cows and sheep; and exotic animals too, including birds and snakes to iguanas.
