Chiropractic Care/VOM

Chiropractic Care/VOM

Iowa Veterinary Wellness Center specializes in veterinary orthopedic manipulation (VOM) therapy, designed for precise adjustments in the spinal and hip areas. While often compared to chiropractic care, VOM therapy differs as it does not rely on hand manipulation. Instead, it uses a small hand tool, known as an activator device, to perform targeted adjustments along the spine and hips.

Benefits of VOM Therapy

VOM therapy is not only effective but also typically safer than traditional hand manipulation methods. It offers relief from orthopedic and spinal disorders, alleviating chronic pain and discomfort. Additionally, it can be beneficial for acute injuries and provides a reliable method for pain relief.

Combining Therapies for Optimal Results

At Iowa Veterinary Wellness Center, our veterinarians often combine VOM therapy with acupuncture to achieve long-lasting results and relief for your pet.
