Susan West, D.C. offers chiropractic care to our patients by pre-arranged appointments. A chiropractic exam includes the history, neurological exam, stance and gait analysis, motion and static palpation and may include other exams as needed.

Canine and feline patients are seen in conjunction with veterinary care. Chiropractic care is not intended to replace veterinary care and is offered as a complementary and alternative addition to veterinary medicine. Your pet must be examined by your veterinarian prior to a chiropractic exam. Follow-up chiropractic visits do not require a veterinary exam unless there is a change in the condition of your pet.

Chiropractic care may be appropriate for performace dogs (show dogs, athletes), geriatric pets, or for any pet with the following conditions:

• Arthritis
• Lameness
• Trouble getting up or down
• Muscle spasms
• General neck, back and leg pain
• Disk and joint problems
• Maintenance of joint and spinal health

Dr. Janice L. Cain, Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine, specializes in complex and challenging medical cases. Her sub-specialty is canine reproduction. She has lectured throughout the country at veterinary conferences and works with breeders throughout California.
