About Animal Biomechanical Medicine
– Ilona Hudson (Vet), Rebecca Hill (Osteopath), Jenna Norrie (Osteopath) and Stephen Porter (Osteopath)
Animal Biomechanical Medicine (ABM) is a new profession. It has evolved through the interaction of an innovative and open minded group of professionals who came together through the running of the RMIT University Animal Chiropractic program between 1998 and 2009.
We are a group of veterinarians, Osteopaths and chiropractors who have undertaken a further 2 years post graduate study in animal biomechanical medicine.
Those who are constantly seeking to understand what they do not and learn what is unknown are the true scientists and leaders of fields. We are dedicated to the pursuit of new and beneficial approaches as we seek to improve outcomes for biomechanically dysfunctional animals, and then document our findings scientifically to educate the broader animal care community.
ABM encompasses various techniques suitable for animals from many sources. Chiropractic and Osteopathy techniques are the major sources – but ABM professionals are open minded and will learn from all they come in contact with, so there are many other influences involved and every ABM practitioner has a different assessment and treatment style.
