Austin Equine Chiropractic
Equine Chiropractic care, working to keep your horse happy and healthy.
Serving horses and other animals in the vicinity of Austin, Texas.
I AM BAILEY BLACK, DC,
AND I AM AUSTIN EQUINE CHIROPRACTIC.
My love for animals isn’t just a career choice—it’s been a lifelong journey. I have been riding since I could walk and even played polo in college, so I understand firsthand the demands placed on our animal athletes. After earning my Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Sciences from Texas A&M University, I pursued my Doctorate in Chiropractic at the famed Parker University. It was there that I combined my two passions, becoming a fully qualified human chiropractor and a certified animal chiropractor.
I am currently licensed by the state of Texas and hold my certification from the Animal Chiropractic Certification Commission of the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association. My philosophy is simple: every animal deserves the highest standard of care. I believe that when chiropractic adjustments are coupled with expert veterinary care, we can optimize your horse’s quality of life. An adjustment doesn’t just impact the joints; it influences the brain and nervous system, and when you change the brain, you change lives. I invite you to see the difference chiropractic care can make in your animal’s performance and well-being by scheduling below.

VETERINARY REFERRAL
In the state of Texas, for your pet to receive chiropractic care, a Veterinarian Referral Form must be completed and signed by both the owner and Veterinarian. If a patient is not a candidate for animal chiropractic or needs further diagnostics from their vet before receiving care, we will not treat and will refer to the patient’s vet as necessary. Chiropractic services are not meant to replace traditional veterinary care, but rather an integrative method that when used in conjunction, will make a positive impact in your animal’s life.
