McTimoney is a form of chiropractic manipulation used to treat pain and dysfunction of the musculoskeletal system. 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.
