Dog Chiropractor in Northumberland
In the late 1950s John McTimoney adapted his human Chiropractic technique to suit dogs and other animals. This proved to be extremely successful.
The technique is similar to that used in human manipulation and the adjustments are light and swift causing the animal little discomfort. In most cases the dogs accept the manipulation willingly and in some cases even enjoy it.
McTimoney chiropractic is most commonly used by owners of greyhounds, show dogs, agility dogs, and tracking dogs as well as pets.
