A Kangaroo’s Journey to Recovery: Moss’s Story with Carlin Chiropractic

By February 19, 2024No Comments

… Time for a change of pace …

In a heartwarming tale of resilience and care, meet Moss, an 8-month-old female Joey, who found herself in need of help on December 23. Thanks to her authorised carer, Sharon, and the team at Carlin Chiropractic, Moss’s journey to recovery has been nothing short of miraculous!

Initially found by local residents on the side of the road, Moss was unable to walk and still dependent on her mother for nourishment. Local veterinarians cleared her of hip and lower spine fractures, suspecting a mild spinal cord trauma. With hope and determination, Moss began her healing journey with us.

Within just six days of visiting our practice, Moss showed remarkable progress. She began to stand, a testament to her strength and the support of our dedicated team. By January 5, Moss was already bearing weight on her legs, a milestone that filled us with joy and optimism.

And then, on January 9, the moment we had been eagerly awaiting arrived – Moss could hop! With her movements greatly improved and her spirits lifted, Moss was well on her way to rejoining her friends in the wild.

At Carlin Chiropractic, we are honoured to have played a role in Moss’s recovery. Our commitment to providing specialised care extends beyond humans to the precious wildlife in our community. As Moss prepared to move to a wildlife shelter in Mount Barker, we were filled with gratitude for the opportunity to support her journey to health and freedom.

Stay tuned for more updates on Moss’s progress and more heartwarming stories of healing at Carlin Chiropractic.
