Bill overview
This bill establishes a framework for animal chiropractic practice in California, allowing licensed chiropractors to offer spinal and musculoskeletal treatments to animals under specific conditions. It requires chiropractors to register as ‘animal chiropractic practitioners’ with the State Board of Chiropractic Examiners and meet certain training and certification requirements. The bill also creates a process for animal owners to consent to treatment and clarifies the roles and responsibilities of chiropractors and veterinarians, while exempting animal chiropractic practitioners from certain aspects of the Veterinary Medicine Practice Act.
