Canine Align at Nostos
Chiropractic for Dogs in Calgary
Canine chiropractic is a specialized form of therapy that focuses on the alignment and health of a dog's musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine and joints. Just like humans, dogs can experience misalignments, discomfort, and mobility issues due to injuries, age, or congenital conditions.
Canine chiropractors use gentle, hands-on adjustments to realign the spine, alleviate pain, and improve overall function. This therapy can help with a variety of issues, including arthritis, hip dysplasia, and post-surgical recovery. In addition to physical benefits, canine chiropractic can enhance a dog’s quality of life, increase energy levels, and promote better overall well-being. Regular chiropractic care can also support preventative health, ensuring your furry friend remains active and healthy throughout their life.

At Nostos, we offer chiropractic for dogs of all ages, and helped with a variety of injuries, symptoms and conditions.

Before any adjusting is completed a health history consultation is performed, a physical exam is completed and you'll be given all the information about the findings.

A common question we get is, "My dog is old and has arthritis, are they a candidate for chiropractic?" Age and arthritis are NOT contraindications to chiropractic, and in many cases, elderly dogs with arthritis feel a lot of relief from their adjustments.
Why do dogs need chiropractic?
Dogs can greatly benefit from chiropractic care to maintain their overall health and well-being. Just like humans, dogs can suffer from musculoskeletal issues due to injuries, aging, or repetitive strain. Chiropractic adjustments can help alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance athletic performance, making it especially beneficial for active or working dogs.
By addressing misalignments in the spine and joints, chiropractic care can also aid in recovery from surgeries or injuries, promoting faster healing and reducing discomfort. Additionally, regular chiropractic treatments can help prevent future problems, ensuring your dog remains agile and active throughout their life. Overall, chiropractic care is a valuable complement to a dog's healthcare routine, enhancing their quality of life and allowing them to enjoy their favorite activities with ease.
