Stories from our patients

For years I struggled with chronic neck stiffness, nerve pain shooting down my arm, and elbow pain that affected my work and daily life. I honestly didn't expect much improvement this quickly, but after only 3 visits with Dr. Patrick, my elbow pain and nerve pain has completely gone away and my neck feels better than it has in decades. My neck stiffness is practically gone and my range of motion is back. I'm so grateful I found Restored Chiropractic and finally took the step to get help.

I am a small breeder of Miniature Poodles and show in AKC as well as dabble in other venues. Needless to say they're little athletic dogs doing a lot of running around on the weekends. I almost instantly noticed positive changes in day-to-day activities after our initial visit and have pre-booked for between our weekend ventures. Patrick is also very gentle and patient. The Poodle house thanks you!

I have taken my dog to get readjusted and have been quite happy with the results. As my dog had trouble walking and now after 3-4 visits she is now more relaxed and energetic than ever. Highly recommend more people to visit Dr. Patrick!

I had never seen a chiropractor before and, honestly, I was pretty nervous going in. I wasn't sure what to expect or whether it was right for me. From the very first visit, Dr. Patrick completely changed that. He took the time to educate me on how chiropractic care works, walked me through every adjustment before doing it, and explained exactly why each area needed attention. That combination of transparency and genuine care made all the difference. I came in dealing with hip and neck pain, and the results have been remarkable. What really stood out to me was how specific and precise Dr. Patrick is. He doesn't just do a general adjustment — he pinpoints exactly what needs work and is incredibly gentle while doing it. He also has a strong focus on athletic performance, which was huge for me. We've worked directly on improving my Olympic weightlifting movements and CrossFit training, so I can perform and compete at a higher level. On top of the in-clinic care, he gave me exercises to do at home so I could take ownership of my own progress instead of relying solely on coming in every week. That was something I didn't expect and genuinely appreciated. After seeing how much better I felt, moved, and performed in the gym, I decided to bring my dog in as well. She had been slowing down and clearly showing signs of discomfort when running, both inside and outside. After just a few adjustments, she is like a completely different dog. She's running around like she's five years younger and full of energy again. Dr. Patrick is knowledgeable, thorough, and truly invested in helping you reach your goals — whether that's you or your pet. Highly recommend Restored Chiropractic to anyone looking for personalized, results-driven care.

We've been extremely pleased with the results for our Siberian Husky, Maya. Rebadow is highly knowledgeable in animal chiropractic care and treats her with great gentleness during each adjustment. Maya seems to enjoy her visits, too!

Dr. Patrick was amazingly kind and gentle with my dog who is having leg issues. He listened carefully to my concerns and took his time to make us both comfortable. My dog is walking in a more balanced way since her adjustment.

Animal Care FAQ

Questions, answered

The five questions we hear most often about animal chiropractic.

Should your animal see a chiropractor?
If your animal has a spine, a nervous system, and is alive — absolutely. Chiropractic helps every aspect of body function and helps the body perform at its most optimal.
Does chiropractic replace veterinary care?
Absolutely not. Chiropractic care helps with a lot, but it does not take the place of necessary veterinary medical care. We work alongside your vet to provide complete care for your animal.
How often should my animal be adjusted?
Every body and every situation is different — especially across breeds, jobs, species, and ages. Initial care for an acute case might be once every 7–14 days. Maintenance care is often once every 4–8 weeks.
Is chiropractic safe?
Yes, when performed by a trained and experienced professional. It is safe for humans and animals from one minute old to 100+ years old.
What credentials should I look for in an animal chiropractor?
Look for someone approved and certified through a regulating body such as the IVCA (International Veterinary Chiropractic Association) or the AVCA (American Veterinary Chiropractic Association). Dr. Patrick is certified through the IVCA.
