The American Veterinary Chiropractic Association (AVCA) is the primary accrediting body for animal chiropractic practitioners. The commission develops standards of safety and competency to protect and benefit patients. AVCA/AVCC requires a minimum of 210 hours of education prior to a rigorous written and practical exam, thus being a significant professional achievement.

My mission is to utilize evidence based methods to assess the biomechanical source of the animal’s dysfunction, ameliorate the pain, and focus on appropriate and effective solutions to improve overall quality of life. I strive to decrease the pain animals may feel due to musculoskeletal dysfunction and improve overall performance, whether that animal has a job to compete or is an important family member. I also strive to be in compliance with all state rules and regulations, specifically Texas Administrative Code Rule 573.14.
