JUST LIKE HUMANS, ANIMALS CAN EXPERIENCE THE BENEFITS OF CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Any animal, at any stage of life, from performance athletes, working partners, or cherished family members can experience the benefits of chiropractic care. Dr. Jessica Hollis is dedicated to the health and wellness of your furry friends; her goal is to provide animal chiropractic care that allows animals to achieve performance and wellness goals through the health of their body. She believes in a holistic approach to animal care and takes the whole animal into consideration while employing specific and gentle chiropractic care.

Dr. Hollis will work with you and your pets to create a personalized treatment plan that addresses any issues or concerns you may have. It is her goal to target any issues the animal may be experiencing at the source - enhancing performance and mobility, optimizing nervous system function, and promoting overall well-being. She believes in open communication and collaboration and is committed to providing the best possible care for your pet.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The spine, nerves, and the brain have a functional relationship that is involved in the execution of any task that is presented to the body throughout the day. Whether it be a horse, dog, chicken, or human, all animals have a spine that plays an integral role in housing this relationship. If a spinal vertebra is in an abnormal position, referred to as a "vertebral subluxation", this will cause interference to the nervous system and will result in inhibited nerve and blood flow not only to the localized area of the subluxation but also to the rest of the body. It is this vertebral subluxation that chiropractors specialize in correcting through a specific and gentle input to the impacted vertebral region, which is called an "adjustment". The result of an adjustment includes improved mobility, decreased pain, nervous system optimization, and the promotion of overall well being.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions

It is never too soon or too late to incorporate animal chiropractic care into your pet's wellness plan. By doing so, you proactively promote the maintenance of a healthy body and work to prevent the development or progression of chronic conditions and misalignments. Early intervention can be a key factor in ensuring your pet's long-term health, comfort, and vitality.

You can start chiropractic care when you notice signs of discomfort, such as difficulty getting up, limping, or behavioral changes. If your pet has recently incurred an injury, this is also a great time to get them checked, as chiropractic care can help with the healing process and get them back on the path to wellness. Whether your pet is young or senior, regular chiropractic care can support their well-being throughout their life.

An adjustment is a gentle, safe, and precise technique performed by a certified animal chiropractor to restore proper alignment and motion to the joints. Adjustments can be delivered by hand or with the use of a specialized instrument, depending on your pet’s needs.

The goal of an adjustment is to correct subluxations, which occur when there is a lack of motion in a joint, leading to interference in the nervous system. This interference can disrupt the body’s normal function and healing processes. By removing subluxations, and thus interference, chiropractic adjustments help restore optimal nerve function, improving communication between the brain and the body, and promoting overall healing and movement.

Subluxations can result from a variety of causes, including physical trauma, emotional stress, or chemical imbalances. If left unaddressed, they can lead to numerous complaints such as pain, decreased mobility, slower healing, digestive issues, sleep disturbances, and changes in behavior. Regular adjustments can help prevent these issues and keep your pet healthy, active, and comfortable.

The frequency of chiropractic care for your pet is personalized based on several key factors, including the nature and severity of the issue, whether it’s a recent or long-standing condition, your pet’s age, and the desired outcomes of treatment. During the initial phase of care, your pet may need more frequent adjustments to address any misalignments or injuries and begin the healing process. Once the initial concerns are addressed, the frequency of adjustments may decrease, transitioning to a maintenance plan to support long-term health and wellness. Your chiropractor will work with you to determine the ideal care plan tailored to your pet's unique needs.
