RUFF CHIROPRACTIC
Dr. Shannon Ruff
Doctor of Chiropractic
Certified Animal Chiropractor
My passion to serve others, the understanding that the body heals from the inside out, and my love of animals all led me to my calling as a chiropractor for both people and their pets. I received my Bachelor of Science in Biology from Newberry College, followed by my Doctor of Chiropractic from Sherman College of Chiropractic. I received my post-doctorate training in animal chiropractic at the ACES program in Texas, and became certified in animal chiropractic through the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association (AVCA). I am certified in Thompson Technique through the Thompson Technique Academy, and other techniques used include SOT and Activator.
