Equine Chiropractic Care in Scottsdale

At Desert Shadows Chiropractic in Scottsdale, we serve the area’s thriving equestrian community, where horses perform in disciplines such as dressage, show jumping, and endurance riding. To maintain peak physical condition, horses benefit from performance optimization techniques that enhance their agility and endurance. Soft tissue work, including massage and stretching, helps relieve muscle tension and prevent injuries from repetitive motion.

Equine chiropractic adjustments also play a crucial role in pain management, especially for horses recovering from previous injuries or dealing with arthritis. By incorporating neurological assessments, chiropractors can ensure that a horse’s reflexes and nerve function are optimal, promoting better coordination and overall well-being.

Equine Services:

An equine chiropractor focuses on the musculoskeletal and nervous systems of horses, using manual adjustments and other techniques to improve mobility, relieve pain, and enhance performance. Some of their services include:

Joint Mobilization – Enhancing flexibility and range of motion in the horse’s legs, neck, and back.

This review is way passed due. Dr. Campo is literally a hero. He has brought my dog, who I thought was on his death bed, back to spunky energized health more than once. We have gone broke spending everything we had on surgery and medication and emergency rooms due to the VET telling us that was our only option to keep our dog. Jinx suffers from IVDD. Dr. Campo, in my opinion, cures IVDD. At least makes it more comfortable. My dog will be shaking in pain and unable to walk & just a couple visits to Animal Chiropractic, he is full of life and he feels so good youd never know what he has been through. Dr. Campo is so knowledgeable, honest, we see how much he truly cares about our dog. He tells us everything we need to do to prevent this from happening again (unlike the vet who basically tells us we are doomed)& being the only chiropractor in the valley, the value for his services are so beyond fair. Yall. If your dog suffers from IVDD, im tellin ya, stop wasting your time and money and come here. Trust him. The CBD and powders he prescribes are miracle workers too.Thank you Dr. Campo!

Went today was nervous about what to expect for my papillion but the doctor was amazing. He listened to me and was amazing with our dog. I understand when a vet is important but when they don't know what to really do this is why I came here. So grateful finally some answers. Thank you for listening and putting us at ease.

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Chris. Patient, Understanding, Knowledgeable, Fair Pricing! Kodiak, my 13 yo Siberian Husky, jumped out of the back seat of a car at the groomers. He twisted his back so badly that he literally couldn't hold himself up on his back legs. After taking him to the ER vet, they thought he might have nerve damage! A quick 20 minute visit with Dr Chris, a few adjustments, and he was walking like normal! The relief was overwhelming! Kodiak is back to himself! It's amazing how a simple adjustment cleared up all the problems, vs the normal vet who wanted to run $1000 in tests, that, come to find out, would have been inconclusive anyway.
