NO. Absolutely NOT. It doesn't matter what State you are in, if someone manipulates your spinal vertebrae, they are outside their scope of practice unless they are a licensed chiropractor. If someone did this to you, you have grounds for litigation. That means you can sue them, and if you can prove they did it, you willl have a good chance of winning a settlement.

What education or training do you need to become a animal chiropractor?

To become an animal chiropractor (eg: an equine chiropractor), one must have a doctorate in chiropractic or a doctorate in veterinary medicine.Thus, the steps will be:1) Complete a 4 year university/college undergraduate degree (eg: Bachelors of Science)2) Complete a 4 year doctorate in either chiropractic medicine or veterinary medicine3) Pass national/regional board exams for veterinary or chiropractic medicine3) Complete a certification program in animal manipulation (200 additional hours)Once this is completed, you can call yourself a doctor of animal (eg: equine) chiropractic.There are also 1 and 2 year programs available for someone who has no university or college training, called equine therapy. This is like becoming a massage therapist for horses, and I believe they also teach a couple of generic manipulation techniques. Once you have completed this program you can call yourself an equine therapist (many of these people call themselves equine chiropractors, but it is illegal to do so).

Can a Chiropractor work as a PTA?

I am a chiropractor and can tell you that the answer is an unequivival no. A chiropractor cannot work as a licensed physical therapy assistant unless they are licensed as a physical therapist or physical therapy assistant. Chiropractors can practice physiotherapy(P.T) but cannot practice physcical therapy(P.T). In the same way, physical therapists can sometimes manipulate the spine but they can't practice chiropractic unless they are also a licensed chiropractor. Medicare requires that a P.T or P.T.A perform the physical therapy -not a chiropractor.
