At Healing Arts Chiropractic, Dr. Kimberly Gordacan, DC can help treat your cat for his or her misalignments under the supervision of a veterinarian.

In fact, even if you consider your cat a couch potato, cats are very athletic creatures and can twist and stretch like a rubber band (even if you’re not looking!). Although these movements may seem completely effortless to them in our eyes, often Dr. Kimberly Gordacan, DC notices a lot of stress on the joints and muscles tends to happen over time to most all cats.
