Therapeutic Modalities

Acupuncture

This ancient therapy is still used today and is effective in the treatment of a variety of disorders and supporting the body to rebalance and heal. Acupuncture uses small, thin, flexible needles inserted at particular points to stimulate the body to release neurotransmitters and hormones into the bloodstream. These biochemical and energetic responses assist the body in general healing, pain relief and normalizing organ function.

Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care focuses on the role of the spine and nervous system in maintaining good health. Chiropractic adjustments aim to restore optimal range of motion and nerve function, allowing the body to self-regulate and heal. Adjustment techniques can be done manually or with the use of a small “activator” tool which is very safe and gentle. This latter technique is termed VOM, or Veterinary Orthopedic Manipulation, and is a very useful modality for both dogs & cats.

Laser Therapy

Low level (cold) lasers are a cutting edge therapy gaining favor in veterinary medicine. This non-invasive therapy has numerous clinical studies demonstrating its safety and efficacy.

At IVC, we use class 3 laser tools that through the principle of “photochemistry”, modulating biochemical reactions via the absorption of photons or light.

Laser therapy is used to reduce pain and inflammation and promote tissue healing, making it quite useful for many conditions including injuries, arthritis, skin disease, wound healing, post-operative surgical healing and internal medicine conditions.

Ozone Therapy

This therapy involves the use of ozone (O3 gas) to deliver extra oxygen to the body’s cells, which promotes tissue healing and repair. Ozone therapy provides a simple, safe, and non-invasive modality which is beneficial in the treatment of inflammation, infection, arthritis, spinal disease and cancer.

Energy Healing

Energy Healing is a modality termed Healing Touch for Animals. It is an energy field clearing therapy that supports the body to self-heal. Some of the techniques include trauma release, vertebral release and repair, chakra and chi balance, sound therapy which may include use of specialized tuning forks and advanced essential oil applications.

Canine Massage

Canine massage provides therapeutic benefits to dogs in the same way it does for humans. It is an excellent tool for achieving and maintaining optimal health for any dog, at any stage of life. During a massage toxins are released from the body promoting physical, mental and emotional wellness. Every massage is designed specifically for your dog’s needs and well-being.
