Pekingese’s Muscle Spasm Problem Treated By Canine Chiropractic

Friday evening, my Pekingese, Clyde began limping late after the vet we had been seeing for several years closed for the weekend. It seemed to help, so tucked him in for the evening and with the intention of checking on Clyde’s condition the next morning before deciding whether to visit the emergency vet clinic. Compared to our regular vet, the rates were so out of sight so I tried to avoid the emergency clinic in town.

On Saturday morning, Clyde was better but he still did not seem 100%. I spent some time massaging him again, taking care to hold pressure on trigger points until I could feel the muscles relax. I didn’t worry too much because Clyde appeared calm.

But when early Morning came, Clyde’s muscles tightened up again and I got alarmed when he threw up a thick white substance. I held his tiny body close while I typed some keyword phrases into a search engine, and started looking for clues about what might be wrong. Since the name “Dr. Ava Frick” and “Ava Frick, DVM” kept popping in the engine search results, I visited her web site and called her clinic.

Luckily for us, Dr. Frick was able to squeeze us into her schedule quickly, which really impressed me. I got the impression that her staff cared about their patients just as much as Dr.Frick did. Dr. Frick performed an examination to find out what might be wrong after obtaining Clyde’s complete medical history. She began canine chiropractic treatments right then, and we set up a schedule for treatments to continue.

Clyde’s treatment made him feel relaxed and comfortable, which is the most important. I am so glad that I found someone who exactly knows how to solve Clyde’s pain although I had never heard of the concept of using chiropractic techniques on animals.

I now recommend Animal Fitness Center and Dr. Frick’s staff to my fellow pet owners at every chance I get.
