Bow Bottom Vet in Calgary discuss Chiropractic and Rock Blading in Pets

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation, often referred to as blading, or “Rock Blading”, is a series of stroking treatments designed to improve circulation and mobility of muscles and joints by relieving fibrous tissue adhesions. It is often performed by veterinary chiropractors after chiropractic and/or acupuncture is given. With these methods, several different shaped flat stainless steel, rubber or plastic instruments can be glided along the pet’s body. The chiropractor can feel many features of the patient’s muscles and skin and is thus able to determine what type of tissue manipulation techniques are needed. The skin and hair follicles are very complex and have many neuroreceptors that are involved with maintaining balance and health of the body. These include mechanoreceptors (such as Ruffini corpuscles and Pacinian corpuscles) that detect pressure, nociceptors that detect pain, thermoreceptors that recognize temperature, and proprioceptors that detect position in space and movement. The blading techniques are various speeds to upregulate or down regulate mechanoreceptors, and in so doing, they improve glide of skin over muscle and also improve hyaluronic acid production. They also help relax muscles, decrease pain and help calm the patient. For more information please contact us at www.bowbottomvet.com Thank you!
