Casey Brechtel, DVM, PhD

AnimalCrackers Chiropractic was started in 2004 after Dr. Casey Brechtel became involved in Animal Chiropractic. This interest began as an amazing journey of awareness. Before the turn of the millennium, Dr. Brechtel was himself referred to chiropractic for back care. During this healthcare episode he became friends with, and later married, a human chiropractor by the name of Mary Malott-Brechtel. This angel of mercy changed his life in many ways. His spouse not only enlightened him about chiropractic, but has also served as a role model for the success that chiropractic can have for patients. As a scientist, Dr. Brechtel was at first reluctant to accept the wide variety of conditions treatable by chiropractic, but after watching his wife’s practice provide hundreds upon hundreds of individuals with hope for conditions that western medicine had failed, he began to come around (men are always slow this way). In 2004, spurred on by his wife, Dr. Brechtel attended Parker Chiropractic College’s AVCA certified Animal Chiropractic course. Since that time he has favored natural medicine above western based veterinary medicine because of its safety and effectiveness. In addition to chiropractic techniques, Dr. Brechtel incorporates, nutrition, acupuncture, homeopathy, and herbology into his practice. The practice includes many small animals, horses, and a special dolphin named Astro. Many pet-patient’s owners are HealthMatters Chiropractic patients as well, making chiropractic care, a truly family affair. (Source)
