An exciting range of topics have been announced, to be presented at the inaugural Animal Chiropractic and Rehabilitation Conference on 17th April.  Delegates will also have the opportunity to try out cutting-edge state-of-the-art technology in the Anatomage digital dissection table, guided by one of the senior teaching faculty at the McTimoney College of Chiropractic.

The conference is showcasing the latest research in animal chiropractic care and rehabilitation through both platform and poster presentations covering equine and canine research.


Following a thorough peer review process, speakers will present their findings on a range of equine topics including:

  •          key equine movement parameters for assessment,
  •          the effects of rider weight on joint ROMS of ID horses and muscle tension in Exmoor ponies,
  •          effect of skeletal asymmetry on SJ performance,
  •          efficacy of chiropractic and fascial release treatments on muscle tension and
  •          features of the relationship between practitioners and clients.

Focussing on equine research in the morning, the afternoon session moves to canine research and includes:

  •          the relationship between canine joint ROM and elbow and hip scores in a working breed,
  •          laterality differences of joint flexion and extension in huskies,
  •          effect of skeletal asymmetry on weight distribution,
  •          effect of flyball training on joint ROM and weight distribution and
  •          muscle soreness responses in dogs wearing harnesses.

Keynote speakers Prof Christina Cunliffe and Sally Charlton MSc will be presenting an overview of the importance of and latest research in animal chiropractic, and sponsors Agria Pet Insurance will provide a talk on their key products at the beginning of the afternoon session.

Trade stands are attending so delegates can peruse these during breaks.  With lunch provided the ticket price of only £30 is a steal but sales have been strong so there is now limited availability.

It predominantly focuses on optimising the alignment of the spine and pelvis to restore the correct function of the skeletal system, nervous system, and surrounding soft tissue. The technique is non-invasive and gentle and is readily accepted by animals. The treatment aims to resolve dysfunction and balance the animal’s musculoskeletal system, restoring health and movement, soundness, and performance.
