By Essie Osborn


The treatment which is carried out by a chiropractor was introduced in 1895 within the USA by D. D Palmer. There is some small variations of the work which is carried out by a veterinary chiropractor but they use the same basic principle and this principle is based on living organisms consisting of matter. There is however some elements which cannot be accounted for under the category of matter. It is this basic concept which separates this type of medicine from all other forms of medicine.

Chiropractors who deal with animals have a tendency to focus on the relationship between the spinal cord and the nervous system. The way in which one of these interacts with the other can be a good sign of what the problem is and this gives a good indication of the most suitable type of treatment for the animal.

Animal chiropractors in the city of Pittesburgh, PA and their colleagues in other areas study the musculo- skeletal system in a lot of detail and this helps them to get a good understanding of how to diagnose the problem. The ability to diagnose the problem can go a great way to being able to treat the problem area.

Most chiropractors study the muscle and tissue of the body as can provide a lot of detail about the posture of the animal. The posture of an animal can help to show where the problem area is. The way that the animal moves its spine will affect its posture. In order to diagnose the problem the animal will need to be checked for signs of muscle spasms. Any strange movement within the body of the animal and this can be an indication of a problem.

After the problem has been diagnosed the chiropractor can decide on the best course of action. The aim of the treatment is to being the body back to the level at which it is meant to be. This treatment can be very relaxing for the animal and most animals enjoy it. After the body has returned to its normal level then the animal can return to its normal routine.
