The Whole Horse DVM - Animal Chiropractic Care - Garwood, TX

Member since Jul 2022

We perform Equine Osteopathy and Animal Chiropractic Care. Osteopathy considers the science of the autonomic nervous system to evaluate and treat your animal both on the outside and the inside. We are now also doing Canine Osteopathy as well.
I am a graduate of Dr. Pitcairn's veterinary homeopathy course, as well as a student of Vega Rozenberg, human homeopath. I will do homeopathy consults on all animals. I am also a certified acupuncturist (IVAS) and have graduated from a program in animal chiropractic (Options for Animals). We are located in Garwood Texas between Austin, Houston, and San Antonio.

🐾 About Animal Chiropractic in Garwood, TX
LuAnn Groves DVM provides animal chiropractic services in Garwood, Colorado County, and surrounding areas, including El Campo, Wharton, Rosenberg, Richmond, Eagle Lake, Needville, Columbus, East Bernard, Sealy, Hungerford. Animal chiropractic care focuses on the relationship between the spine, joints, muscles, and nervous system, using hands-on techniques intended to support mobility, physical function, and overall comfort. Depending on their training and experience, LuAnn Groves DVM may work with horses, companion animals, and other species.


Every animal has unique physical needs, movement patterns, and health considerations. LuAnn takes an individualized approach, considering each animal's species, age, activity level, physical condition, and movement concerns. Animal chiropractic may be considered as part of a broader wellness plan, in coordination with appropriate veterinary care.


What Can an Animal Chiropractor Help With?
Animal chiropractic consultations may address a range of musculoskeletal and mobility concerns, depending on the professional's qualifications, experience, and the species they serve.


Mobility and Movement Concerns:
Evaluating stiffness, limited range of motion, or changes in the way an animal moves.


Spinal and Joint Mobility:
Using appropriate hands-on techniques to support normal movement and musculoskeletal function.


Equine Chiropractic Care:
Supporting movement, flexibility, and physical comfort in horses, including active and performance animals.


Age-Related Mobility Changes:
Helping assess physical changes that may affect an animal's comfort and everyday movement.


Activity and Performance Support:
Addressing movement concerns in working, athletic, and physically active animals.


General Animal Wellness:
Providing individualized chiropractic care based on an animal's physical condition and the professional's areas of expertise.


Every animal is different, and not every concern is appropriate for chiropractic care. A veterinarian should evaluate injuries, illness, and other medical conditions and help determine whether complementary chiropractic services are suitable.


How Animal Chiropractic Appointments Work
LuAnn Groves DVM offers individualized animal chiropractic appointments based on the needs of each animal and the services listed on this profile. An appointment may include discussing the animal's health history, observing its posture and movement, evaluating areas of stiffness or restricted mobility, and determining which techniques may be appropriate.


The specific approach varies according to the professional's training, the animal's species, and its individual circumstances. Some animal chiropractors offer mobile appointments and travel to farms, stables, or private residences, while others may have a designated treatment location. Review LuAnn's service details to understand the available appointment options.
