Oliver
This is Oliver! When Oliver came to us he was unable to use his hind limbs because of a problem with his spine. This is a very common occurence in this breed because of their long backs and pre-disposition to spinal stenosis. Through co-management with his primary veterinarian and regular chiropractic adjustments, Oliver is just like his old self again.
We are treating Tommy for a recent hind end weakness, probably from wrestling with his dog brother. His midback is out of alignment causing spinal cord compression.
Abbey, before and after
Abbey had a lower back problem causing pain and a minor limp. She was slow and uncomfortable walking. Her lower back was hunched. Initially, this was as much enthusiasm as her pain would allow. Then watch Abbey happily zooming around in my office after just a couple of adjustments, she is almost back to her old self!

This 6 year old Great Dane has poor awareness of where his feet are. His problems started after being t-boned by another Dane. Spinal adjustments to increase sensory stimulation to his brain and rehab exercises like Cavaletti poles will help him become more coordinated.
This poor fuzzball has a very painful joint irritation in her neck. Her third cervical vertebra is rotated out of proper alignment and not moving properly, causing muscle spasming. Note her muscle twitching, holding her neck to the right, ears are pinned back, unsettled posture, and panting. All of these indicate she is in a lot of pain. Thankfully her vet knows us and referred her to us.
Tzatzel the cat is having a neuro functional acupuncture treatment. Born with congenital hip dysplasia, causing the hip muscles to atrophy, Tzatzel was having trouble walking. Since undergoing a combination of chiropractic, acupuncture and cartrophen injections, no limp is seen and she is actively playing with other cats and the muscles have rebounded. #animalchiropractic #animalacupuncture

Sweet Lola has poor alignment and motion in her mid back, a region which is often a problem in dogs. This is irritating the nerves which control the muscles and carry sensory messages in her hind legs. Spinal adjustments to remove the interference to the nerves and very gentle electro-acupuncture to stimulate healing of the nerves are helping. #animalchiropractic #torontodogs
Dexter walks!! Dexter, age 8, was completely paralyzed from the waist down last week after suffering a disc herniation in his back. His veterinarian suggested trying chiropractic first before euthanizing him. Now he's walking!! So happy for Dexter, his owner, and their veterinarian for referring him to us! Simply amazing. #animalchiropractic #chiropractic #dog #dogs #dogoftheday #paralyzed #love #amazing #recovery #disc #herniation #toronto #torontodogs
Sebastian on his first visit to our office. At 11 weeks of age he was completely paralyzed after a collision with another dog. How much more improvement can he make?

What do animal chiropractors treat? Spinal problems and the neurological problems from spinal problems. This dog has a back problem causing interference in the messages going from the parts of his brain controlling coordination, aka ataxia.
