it's quite neat. she runs her hand down their spine and feels where there is anything out of alignment and either manipulates things with her hands or uses an actuater thingy that sort of gently taps the vertebrae back into place.

Dougal's got a very mild luxating patella so I'm quite careful of him but the vet recommended more jumping (agility jumping - not on and off the furniture ) as that would encourage the muscles to be strong to compensate for the weakness in the knee joint - but both of my guys are quite big (12lbs and 7lbs)
