Orthomanipulation* was developed specifically for the treatment of vertebral and joint misalignment.
The method of treatment is to correct the misalignment, thereby allowing the spine to adjust to a normal position and the nervous system to recover itself.
From 2000-2001 D.C. Aharon was trained by a doctor of humans and applied the human method to companion animals and uses it successfully since then.
* Orthomanipulation means 'working with the hands in the right way'.
Reasons for a consultation include:
my dog / cat is stiff or has difficulty standing up
my dog / cat can’t go up the stairs or jump into the car
he / she has been limping for a while (rest and medicine are insufficient)
he / she is partially paralysed, stumbles over his / her fore- or hind limbs
he / she has had a discopathy (Hernia Nucleus Pulposes)
also for certain behavioural abnormalities, such as restlessness or fearfulness
Rehabilitation and fitness
Dogs can undergo a rehabilitation, exercise- and fitness training.
Reasons for rehabilitation:
muscle-contractions
injuries to muscles and tendons
postoperative patients (after surgeries on knee, shoulder or hip) – animals with hernia and paralysis (post-traumatic or postoperative) - patients with lumbosacral instability and lower back pain
arthrosis patients (dogs that have difficulty getting up, especially after resting) – hyper mobility with animals that are still growing (the dog seems to ‘fall apart’)

After a week they got used to each other, and Yuna became happier, playful and even displayed motherly behaviour. In September of 2010 she made a turn and immediately screamed loudly. After that she limped and had an arched back.… Read more
Cas
Vink family
Our Dachshund Cas was attacked by a large dog during his daily walk: the dog grabbed him by his neck and shook him roughly. From the outside, no injury was apparent, but two days later Cas could hardly step out of his cage and walking was very hard for him. He only wanted to lay down and was shaking all over his body, you could see from the look in his eyes that he was in a lot of pain.… Read more
Barry
Van Elten family
In June 2010, our then 1 year old male cat Barry was probably hit by a car and his hind quarter was completely paralysed. He couldn't even urinate or defecate by himself. Three days later, after treatment with prednisone and lactulosis by our vet, there was no improvement at all and the vet advised us to euthanize Barry.… Read more
