Welcome to Animal Healing Now!
Pittsburgh native, Dr. Michael G. Savko is a board certified doctor of chiropractic and certified in the incredible VOM healing techniques for animals. Please note, he is not a veterinarian, nor does he practice veterinary medicine. Since 2002 he has worked with veterinarians to help enhance the quality of care for large and small animals. Currently, Dr. Savko works in house, under the direct supervision of licensed veterinarians at several prestigious veterinary hospitals across the region. He is also Reiki attuned, holds multiple certifications as a ThetaHealer®, and has experience with many heralded body and energy modalities such as massage, myofascial release, chakra balancing, acupressure, and other holistic and intuitive approaches to healing.
This work can be thought of as a subtle yet very deep removal of stress to the commanding and stabilizing systems of the body in order to improve and maintain health. Nerve and neuromuscular energetic points are evaluated and if imbalance is found, these points are stimulated to restore proper communication between the brain and body thus inducing healing! We seek cause and not just chase effect because if we can remove or reduce causes, we can decrease or eliminate effects. Remember if something is “out” of balance and we want to bring it back “in” to balance, it is being pulled out by muscles, it may be irritated and painful due to inflammation and spasm, there may be malfunction due to abnormal brain/body communication; all of this and much more is controlled by the brain and communicated to and from the body via nerves! If we can remove static from the nervous system we can restore balance to the body; out, in, up, down, symptomatic, asymptomatic, whatever! |
The root of the work comes from a non invasive and very effective healing technology called VOM which locates areas of your animal's nervous and muscle systems that have fallen out of proper communication or balance with the rest of the body and the brain. The goal is to naturally re-establish communication and balance in these areas thus reducing pain AND inducing healing. All accomplished in a very safe and gentle manner which allows for more comprehensive and deeper effects, that last longer than many techniques alone.
The work is incredibly accurate as it has the ability to find and reduce nervous interference and muscular imbalances without drugs or surgery. Our nervous system is extremely important as it is responsible for pain and function, and our muscles are important for protection, balance, movement, and stability. Therefore stress to the nervous and muscle systems can halt the healing processes of both the inside and outside of the body, it can severely inhibit normal bodily functions, and produce pain. The removal of stress to the nervous and muscle systems can reduce pain and discomfort, allowing the body to function at a much higher level therefore removing, reducing or even PREVENTING symptoms from occurring. |
The work is not chiropractic manipulation. While Dr. Savko knows how to do this, he achieves much better results FOR ANIMALS with other less invasive methods. Just because Dr. Savko is a chiropractor does not mean that ALL he does is “adjust”. That is like thinking every Italian restaurant only serves spaghetti! Instead of having to yank, pop, twist, push etc. on the animal to work on things, we gently yet directly “talk” to the nervous system via gentle and precise instrumental stimulation. |
