Most Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if chiropractic can help?

 Most of my clients want to know they have done or at least considered everything possible to help their pet. But what if you have never tried chiropractic? I would recommend looking at our most “common conditions seen and helped in our office” and/or set up a free discovery call for you to further explain your situation. Sometimes chiropractic is not the right service, or the priority service and I want to assist directing you to the correct practitioner. 

What are the most common conditions seen and helped in your office?

Complications from:

Degenerative myelopathy 

Degenerative joint disease

Degenerative disc disease 

TPLO surgery

Strained ligaments in paw

Tail paralysis 

Instability compensation from limb amputation 

Car accidents

Falls

New foster adoptions


Signs of reduction of quality of:

Head shyness

Reduction in activities of daily life

Aggression

Altered abnormal gait

Favoring back or front leg

Sensitivity to touch

Decrease in performance standards 

Difficulty with sitting

Difficulty with rising from lying position 

How much will it cost?

Depends. I want to help your pet get better as fast as possible.  As each dog or cat breed is different and each condition is different the overall plan cost will likely not be the same over the same period of time.eI custom create each treatment plan. Based on breed, age of pet, length of time the condition or problem has been present, the type of condition, severity and performance expectations (a house cat has a different goal than an agility dog). You can expect no cookie-cutter plans.

For example, one treatment plan may equal $495 which will be spread over 5-6 visits and include chiropractic as well as laser sessions. Another plan maybe $355 over 6-8 weeks but only require chiropractic sessions. If you look only at my per service fees then you can expect an initial visit exam to be $125, regular chiropractic sessions are $70 and laser sessions are $40 (for Oregon clients). California rates are $110 for the initial visit, regular chiropractic sessions $82.50 and laser sessions are $50.


Are you a licensed veterinarian?

 Veterinarians graduate with an education to understand and treat animals primarly from a allopathic approach. Although they are the primary physician to offer service, they are not the only profession allowed to care for animals. Although I am not a licensed veterinary doctor, I do hold a Doctorate in Chiropractic. Within that education much of my knowledge of anatomy and physiology has crossover into the animal world. Most importantly I have undergone additional graduate level training in Animal Chiropractic through the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association- which is maintained by both Doctors of Chiropractic and Doctors of Veterinary Medicine.   

Isn’t a veterinarian a better choice?

 I like to answer that with a question. Is a medical doctor a better choice than a dentist? Is a massage therapist better choice than a physical therapist?  Each profession holds its level of expertise and appropriate place of application. I encourage a team approach that uses different perspectives and approaches to achieve maximum results for your pet’s health care goals.
