Animal Chiropractic

Pike Creek Chiropractic Center in Newark, DE is a chiropractic center with a professional animal chiropractor ready to give your pet the best natural treatment to leave them feeling wholesome and happy. Chiropractic care is not only beneficial for human beings, but it is also a helpful alternative treatment for pets who benefit from holistic care.

What Animal Chiropractic Care Can Treat

With chiropractic care, your pet can have immediate relief and improvement. Often, a change is seen within minutes. Because chiropractic care involves manipulating the spine, it follows that it can be done on any vertebrate, but it is most commonly used on dogs, cats, and horses.

Our resident pet chiropractor will help your animal with issues like:

  1. Pain in the neck, back, leg, and tail
  2. Cervical disc problems
  3. Muscle spasms
  4. Knuckling over or neurologic conditions, commonly observed in the rear legs
  5. Injuries resulting from accidents, slips, and falls
  6. Limping or lameness, and general joint problems
  7. Injuries during active events
  8. Sitting with the legs off to one side or "sloppy sitting" in your puppy or adult dog
  9. Maintaining joint and spinal health
  10. Internal medicine disorders, including bowel and bladder issues
  11. Post-surgery care; often after tibial plateau leveling osteotomy or TPLO

Dr South is very professional and sincerely cares about his patients. He has eliminated my migraines and continues to improve issues with my neck and back. I had an elderly dog who could hardly walk and I took him to the vet three times in two weeks. They gave me prescriptions that were not helping, then recommended a chiropractor. I was surprised they recommended Dr South, already my chiropractor! One visit and he was walking pretty normal. After the second visit he was running and playing like a puppy. We had another three years of quality life thanks to Dr South. I'm so grateful to have him in my life!

Dr South, Sharon, Sam and NaMeta are amazing. They genuinely want to know how you are doing from visit to visit. They know each of their patients by name and greet you at the door. Their attention to detail is spot on. I enjoy every session that I have with them. Can't imagine going to anyone else for my Chiropractic needs.

How Our Animal Chiropractic Plan Works

Structural Correction Chiropractic

The body has a natural ability to heal itself but is often hindered by structural imbalances. Physical and emotional stress result in pain, reduced mobility, and other health problems. We detect and correct these imbalances to restore health and well-being.

Functional Rehabilitation

Your personalized treatment plan will focus on correcting any imbalances or weakness, improving movement patterns, and restoring normal function. We design this plan based on your specific situation to help you get out of pain achieve all your health goals.

Nervous System Based Approach

The nervous system is the master control system, it controls every cell, tissue, muscle, and organ in the body. By focusing on the nervous system and optimizing its function, we can improve your overall health, reduce pain, and prevent future health problems.

Other Benefits of Animal Chiropractic Care

Apart from treating injuries, chiropractic care can also help return normal range of motion to prevent arthritis in healthy animals. For those already suffering from arthritis, chiropractic adjustment can help reduce inflammation, stiffness, and pain.

Our pet chiropractor can also help senior dogs with hip dysplasia. If you observe your pet having trouble standing up from a sitting position, sitting very slowly, or showing reluctance sitting down, you should seek advice from our professionals.

The best thing about chiropractic care for your pets is the fact that it works well alongside medications and other treatments, improving the overall outcome of the animal's treatment.
