Dr Lance Riggien completed his studies at the Durban university of Technology before qualifying as a chiropractor in 2003. He has been working in private practice for the 13 last years. In 2015, he qualified as a Veterinary Chiropractor in Germany as well as successfully completing his International Veterinary Chiropractic Association exams and becoming a member of this International organisation dedicated to promoting excellence and consistently high standards in the field of Veterinary Chiropractic. He is currently one of only 3 IVCA registered veterinary chiropractors in South Africa. Dr Riggien began his work with animals in 2009, specialising in Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), an innovative non-surgical method of pain elimination. His therapy has since progressed to include other chiropractic practices for animals, including treatments for conditions of the spine, extremity joints such as shoulders, elbows, hips, knees as well as tendons, muscles and ligaments. Based at the Durbanville Natural Health Centre in Cape Town, Dr Riggien treats a range of animals, including horses, cats and dogs.
