Meet Dr. Kaylyn ‘Molly’ Engen
Dr. Kaylyn (Molly) Engen grew up on a farm in rural Wisconsin. She knew that she wanted to be an animal chiropractor after one of her horses needed to be seen.
Dr. Molly went to Life University for her chiropractic degree, while in school Dr. Molly’s pup Pip was seen by several different animal chiropractors so Dr. Molly could see different styles and techniques!
After completing her chiropractic degree Dr. Molly attended A.C.E.S for her animal chiropractic education. Their curriculum centered around the identification of common veterinary conditions, canine and equine anatomy, and chiropractic condition identification and proper treatment.
She is certified in animal chiropractic through the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association (AVCA). The AVCA is the premier national animal chiropractic association, where members are held to the highest standards in knowledge and care.
Why Animal Chiropractic ?
Animals often suffer from the same ailments people do!
Our pets can suffer from disc herniations, back or neck pain, hip or shoulder dysfunction, and even jaw discomfort.
Chiropractic care is holistic in nature and looks to the whole body for the underlying causes of disease/discomfort.
If the body is functioning properly, it is better able to adapt with different types of internal and external stressors.
Chiropractic improves nervous system communication, which affects everything from muscle tone to joint health.
Chiropractic care is fundamental element in creating a long-lasting and better quality of life for your pets.

Our Process

Last thing before you leave your appointment is the plan.
You will get a specific plan that will address your pets needs/goals.
History of Pet
One of the most important parts of our first visit together!
My goal is to understand your pet as if it was my own.
Full Exam
Next your pet gets examined from head to toe to fully understand what is causing their pain or mobility issues.
Adjustment
It’s time for an adjustment!
Each adjustment is unique to each pets needs and anxiety levels.
This helps to ensure a pleasant and exciting experience.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it hurt for my dog to get adjusted?
Not at all. We try to be very gentle so that your pet is as comfortable as possible. Depending on how much pain your dog is in, some adjustments can be a bit tender but we focus on gentle techniques to alleviate as much discomfort as possible.
What does an adjustment do?
As I evaluate your pet, I am looking for joints that are not moving properly, overall body alignment, tight and tender muscles, and poor nerve function.
I then adjust the joint decrease discomfort and increase motion in the joint. This can reduce pain, improve nerve function, reduce muscle tightness and reduce further wear and tear on the joints.
What should I do following an adjustment?
When your dog gets adjusted, their parasympathetic nervous system is activated. This causes a rest and digest response. As a result, your pet may be very sleepy after their treatment. It is important to give them time to rest with access to plenty of water for 24 hours after their adjustment. It is not recommended that they go to the dog park or perform in any major sporting events for that 24 hour period. However, light walks are just fine.
What kind of animals do you see?
I see small animals, mainly cats and dogs, at our office location (Limitless Chiropractic in Bentonville).
I also travel for large animals!
Does my pet need x-rays before getting adjusted?
X-rays are not mandatory or necessary but are helpful if you already have them.
