Veterinarians: Chiropractic Should Be Part Of Pet Care

The February 15, 2000 issue of the Journal of the American Veterinarian Medicine Association reports that veterinarian school faculty and administrators responding to a survey felt that their curriculum should include more training in holistic (wellness) methods including chiropractic.

The surveys were mailed to veterinarian school deans and faculty. Of those that responded, 61% believed that chiropractic care for animals should be included into their programs. 87% believed that acupuncture, nutritional supplements and physical therapy should be included. 44% felt homeopathy should also be included.
