Questions and Answers
How long does an adjustment take?
It typically takes about 10-15 minutes.
How do you adjust a dog spine?
I adjust 1 vertebra at a time, and only the joints out of alignment are adjusted.
Does my pet have to lie on a table?
No. Your pet will be standing or sitting comfortably during the whole adjustment.
Does it hurt?
Most of the adjustments feel good! A few joints can be slightly uncomfortable for a second. But then, they will realize that they feel so much better!
How long will it take to see an effect?
Most dogs will show an immediate improvement! Dogs with chronic diseases or a long-lasting issue may take longer to see improvement. This is because they have been in that condition for so long.
