Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care focuses on correcting any abnormal movements of the spine that can have numerous adverse effects on the nervous system and the entire body. Chiropractic treatment can be a great option for pets that suffer from spinal problems and musculoskeletal disorders. While chiropractic care does not replace other forms of veterinary medicine, it can aid in the diagnosis and treatment of these issues. The goal of chiropractic treatment is to maximize mobility and optimize nervous system function.
PEMF: Pulsed ElectroMagnetic Frequency Therapy
PEMF is an electromagnet that mimics the frequency of the earth’s magnetic field with increased intensity for the management of wellness, by working on a cellular level. The machine uses electromagnetic waves and is Bi-phasic to help penetrate the cells through different angles.
PEMF is not a tool for diagnosis or to cure diseases.
What type of effect does PEMF have on pain?
- Decreases inflammation (working through intercellular and intracellular)
- Increases the movement and helps normalize the viscosity of blood
- Increases tissue oxygenation
- Increases the threshold to increase the transmembrane potential
- When there is an area of injury or sickness, cells are directly affected, which lowers the transmembrane potential.
The PEMF puts a charge into the cell with a mild magnetic current which helps increase uptake of oxygen and blood flow to restore cells to a level at which they can heal and regenerate.
What does PEMF work well with?
- Pharmaceuticals
- Nutrition
- Physical therapy
- Chiropractic care
What is PEMF good for?
- Chronic Pain
- Osteoarthritis/osteoporosis
- Tendonitis
- Sprains or strains
- Bursitis
- Increase functional recovery through increasing waste removal
- Increase recovery from normal/regular/increased exercise
- Increase endurance by being able to work longer/harder without being as sore
- Release endorphins (The feel goods or the “high”)
- By releasing endorphins, it directly is affecting the central nervous system helping to decrease the overall stress and decrease the feelings of pain. In return this helps to activate the parasympathetic system.
- Detoxification
- Increase red blood cell formation
- Reduce recovery time from surgery and injury up to half
- Helps aid the immune system
- Helps reproduction-increase sperm viability and sperm count
- Helps prepare the uterus for pregnancy
