Animal Chiropractic
Just like in humans, restricted joints and vertebral misalignments in animals cause functional impairments and discomfort that can limit your pet's quality of life. If left untreated, these can lead to chronic pain and further diseases. Your pet's nervous system is also affected by these restrictions. In addition to typical complaints such as pain in the musculoskeletal system and restricted mobility, this can cause other symptoms: digestive disorders, restlessness, dizziness, discomfort, vision problems, and much more.
Animals can communicate discomfort through their behavior.
Signs that you should bring your four-legged friend to our practice include:
- Lethargy in movement
- Pain when petted, manifested for example by refusal
- Strange or even limping gait
- Unusual body posture, for example due to a pain-induced protective posture.
- Pain when sitting down, expressed for example by sounds or refusal
- Pain when putting on the harness, manifested for example by fearful/aggressive behavior of the dog
- Strange behavior such as bad mood, no desire to play or eat, as well as towards other animals/people.
In addition to animal chiropractic, Jasmin, as a trained animal naturopath, offers the listed treatment techniques:
- Animal physiotherapy
- Craniosacral therapy for animals
- NOVAFON sound wave therapy
- Magnetic field therapy
- Electrotherapy
Below, we'd like to introduce you to the devices that can be used for animal treatment:
Magnetic Field Therapy
Magnetic field therapy is a branch of physiotherapy. Every cell has electrical and magnetic forces. With the magnetic field blanket, the body's electromagnetic field can be influenced from the outside. This makes it an important therapeutic aid. This method accelerates healing processes in animals and relieves pain. Magnetic field therapy is well suited for circulatory disorders or cellular metabolic disorders.
NOVAFON Sound Wave Treatments
The gentle vibrations of NOVAFON sound wave devices are guided up to 6 cm deep into the tissue and help relieve pain and rehabilitate patients with neurological diseases. Through deep tissue stimulation, the body's own mechanisms are stimulated, and muscle tension in the treated tissue is newly regulated. Due to its local treatment form, the NOVAFON is very suitable for trigger point treatments, which is why treatment with the NOVAFON at Jasmin's is always combined with gentle trigger point massages before and after use. Treatment with the NOVAFON has proven particularly effective in long-term conditions such as fascial adhesions, osteoarthritis, arthritis, tendinitis, and tendon sheath inflammation.
TheraWave Neuromuscular Stimulator
With the help of low-frequency electricity, this device has a pain-relieving, circulation- promoting, decongestant, and even metabolism-stimulating effect. The pulse function of the TheraWave also improves nerve activity, which is particularly successful in paralysis patients. The treatment is painless and is generally well received by patients.
