Whether your dog is flying through an agility course, chasing Frisbees at full speed, or competing in obedience trials, one thing’s for sure: athletic dogs push their bodies hard—and that means they need more than just rest to stay in peak condition.
At Synchrony Chiropractic, we specialize in supporting canine athletes with mobile chiropractic care and cutting-edge therapies like PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy) and Cold Laser—all done in the comfort of your home.
But what exactly does canine chiropractic care involve? And how can it benefit active dogs?
Let’s break it down.
🐾 What Is Canine Chiropractic Care?
Canine chiropractic is a non-invasive, drug-free approach to supporting joint and spine health. Using gentle, specific adjustments, we help restore normal movement in the spine and limbs, reduce nervous system interference, and support your dog’s overall function.
Common issues we address in athletic dogs:
- Decreased performance or drive
- Reluctance to jump or turn tightly
- Asymmetrical movement (favoring one side)
- Tight muscles or recurring soft tissue injuries
- Behavioral changes due to pain or discomfort
🏠 Why Choose Mobile Chiropractic Care?
We come to you, which means less stress for your dog, no anxious car rides, and no waiting rooms full of distractions. Mobile visits allow us to assess your dog in their natural environment—on the turf, at the training facility, or even in your backyard.
Convenience matters, especially when your athlete is on a tight training or show schedule.
⚡️ What About PEMF and Cold Laser?
These powerful adjunct therapies can accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and improve circulation, making them ideal for high-performance dogs:
✅ PEMF Therapy for Dogs:
- Helps with joint pain, arthritis, and soft tissue injuries
- Improves cellular function and energy production
- Often used before or after competitions to speed recovery
✅ Cold Laser Therapy:
- Delivers low-level laser energy to stimulate tissue repair
- Great for muscle strains, tendon injuries, and post-surgical rehab
- Helps reduce swelling and pain without side effects
We often combine chiropractic adjustments with these therapies during our visits for maximum impact.
💬 FAQs: Common Questions from Dog Owners
Q: Is chiropractic safe for my dog?
Absolutely—especially when performed by a trained and certified animal chiropractor (like us, with AVCA/IVCA credentials). We tailor every adjustment to your dog’s size, breed, and health status.
Q: How often should my athletic dog be adjusted?
Every dog is different, but active dogs often benefit from care every 2–4 weeks to stay ahead of injuries and optimize performance.
Q: What results can I expect?
Most clients notice improved movement, better focus during training, and faster recovery times after just a few sessions.
