Providing Veterinary Chiropractic Care in St. Petersburg, FL
Chiropractic works to affect the nervous system. This is done through the various nerves that go to and from the joints. Treatment consists of finding a joint or several joints that are not moving in the full range of motion. A chiropractic adjustment directs a specific force into that joint to get it unstuck. This allows the nerves surrounding the joint to fire correctly, and the joint to move more freely.
How Veterinary Chiropractic Care Works
The joints in the spine can be very sensitive to the effects of trauma or overuse. The nerves that go throughout the body come out between the bones of the spine (vertebra). A stuck joint, spinal muscle inflammation, or ligament inflammation can all compromise and cause the nerves not to send proper signals from those tissues to the brain.
