Chiropractic for animals
Chiropractic , It was early spring when Turbo the cat decided to jump out of the 3rd story window. His owner , a 19 year old single woman, found him screaming in pain and unable to walk. She rushed the poor cat to the emergency Vet where she was told that the hip was jammed so far into the hip socket that the only thing to do was to cut his leg off. She was told that he would walk just fine on three legs.
As she was leaving the veterinarian office sobbing, she bumped into a woman holding her dog. It just so happened that her dog was paralyzed and after months of vet bills , she took him to her Chiropractor, Barton Chiropractic in Concord. Dr. Barton adjusted the dog and in less than a week, he was walking again.
Well, needless to say Dr. Barton adjusted the cat and within a few visits he was walking again too! At Barton Chiropractic in Concord we specialize in corrective care for children and adults, but we will see a reluctant cat or dog from time to time.
Another cat , Mary Arabe’s 9-year-old gray and black tiger cat, Leo, came home from a night out exploring with a severe limp and an elbow swollen three times its normal size. He was clearly in pain; Ms. Arabe thought he had dislocated his shoulder during a fall.
“He kind of lay around the barn that day; you could tell he was hurting,” said Ms. Arabe, who lives on a 25-acre farm , with 10 chickens, three horses, three cats and two dogs. “He was in so much agony I thought, ‘If someone can’t remove this animal’s pain I have to put him down.’”
She took Leo to the veterinarian, who said he could do nothing for him. Despondent, she took him to a chiropractor , who a few years earlier had adjusted Ms. Arabe’s puggle, Bustar, after a head and neck injury.
An X-ray found no broken bones, but there was a large amount of swelling and fluid retention. Dr. couldn’t make any promises, but he placed his hands on the cat’s spine, hips and neck and manipulated the joints until they popped.
“We brought the cat home, and the next day he was walking fine,” said Ms. Arabe. “Two thirds of the swelling in the arm was gone. Whatever Dr. adjusted, it worked. He healed him.”
Millions of people swear by their chiropractors, and chiropractic has long been a mainstay in the equine world, especially among show or racehorses. Now it is gaining popularity among pet owners, as a way to treat household pets suffering from arthritis, sprains, joint pain and other ailments.
