This month we would like to highlight chiropractic care! Chiropractic care can be used to treat injuries, restore mobility, and relieve pain in animals. Dr. Ashley Mincey is here weekly offering appointments on Wednesdays.

How & Why it Works
- Our brain controls & coordinates all our body’s systems via the spinal cord and nervous system
- Our spinal cord is housed in our spine, where there are LOTS of joints, and are designed to move
- When there is a stuck and/or misaligned joint, it is dysfunctional and interferes with the body’s communication
- The chiropractic adjustment is a specific force that is applied to the joint to mobilize and therefore restore function and communication
- We believe that when the brain has all of the accurate information, our innate intelligence will heal yourself from the inside out
What To Look For
- Difficulty or hesitation climbing stairs, jumping
- Sitting to one side
- Holding their tail to one side
- Limping
- Touch sensitivity
- Hind end weakness “Shepherd stance”
- Abnormal posture
- Recurrent ear infections, incontinence, UTIs
and more!
What to expect post-adjustment
- No change. Often it takes 2-4 visits before we unravel enough patterns to see the benefits.
- Soreness. Like starting a new workout, your pet has to balance their system & use old muscles in new ways
- Excitement. They may feel fresh & rejuvenated, thankful to move comfortably again!
