Center For Animal Healing

Virginia Beach, Virginia
General Info
The Center for Animal Healing is a unique veterinary practice offering affordable, compassionate care for dogs, cats, horses and exotic pets.
We operate under the belief that there is an innate healing force present in every living thing.
Our approach is to evaluate each patient as an individual and to seek to provide for their physical, emotional and nutritional needs.
Our emphasis is on:
- The Structural Integrity of the body
(chiropractic care)
- Energetic stimulation
(Laser, Frequency Specific
Microcurrent, Homeopathy)
- Nutritional therapy
(High quality diets and appropriate
nutritional supplements)
Every living organism has the capacity to heal itself given the proper support. Disease or dis ease is due to an improper balance of structure, function, emotion, or nutrient input.
Our goal is to correct those defects in the least invasive and most humane method possible.

I started bringing my yorkie to Dr. Rowen about 2 years ago when I noticed he was still limping and in pain despite him ha ing luxating patellas corrected surgically a year prior. I racked up over $10k in vet bills for ortho and digestive issues and still he had no relief. Medicine was not helping. Once he started going to CFAH for micro laser and back adjustments his pain subsided almost immediately. I was amazed. His health improved 100% and only vet bills we have now is the small fee charged for Dr. Rowen's services. The entire staff is very supportive and friendly. Im so glad I heard about CFAH and made the decision to test out the waters of holistic healing and it DEFINITELY works. Read Less

I found out about Dr. Rowan through Tammy, that is one of the wonderful ladies that works at my doctor's office. Dr. Rowan is very knowledgeable, very kind, gentle, and truly caring. The staff also showed much care for my dog, they were very professional, as well as personable. Dr. Rowan took the time to explain with great clarity the care needed and the expectations. Rheina worked very well with Snowy and carefully explained what she was doing when she started the session of microcurrents. During this time she also patiently shared information of the Kangen water system. They show integrity and honesty and they don't try to push something just to make money. Hard to find a veterinary clinic that has this type of work ethic. Thank you for all you have done. Read Less

I am so happy I found this place.  I have a small King Charles Spaniel that has had back pain for the last 4 years off and on.  Well in the last month it had gotten so bad he was limping all the time and in constant pain so I started looking for alternative medical solutions.  After his first chiropractic adjustment and IR treatment he was walking much better with almost no limp.  After the second he is acting like his old self before he ever had a problem.  We have another appointment next week.  It has been life changing for Milo and the results are more than I expected I cannot believe there was so much improvement so fast.  So if you have a dog on a pain medication that is not having a happy life get them in here.  In the long run it is better for your companion your pocket.

Dr. Rowan and his staff are amazing. For years Dr. Rowan has volunteered his time helping the shelter animals at VBSPCA, so when my own dog was injured, I knew I could trust him to provide compassionate care and alternative approach from turning to aggressive surgery as the first option. "Winnie" has been undergoing microcurrent treatment for several months now and she has improved tremendously! Both of my dogs love coming to the office with the reading atmosphere and treat-doting staff. Thank you for helping not only my pets, but all of the animals! Read Less

I highly recommend you taking your dog or cat to Center for Animal Healing in VB. Peteys sway in her back is not as bad as it was before. He got them on a better, healthier diet. He is adding non-traditional medical treatment for Azzy during her chemo treatments and working together with her oncologist. The charges are very reasonable and they will work with you and make a payment plan with you (no interest). Talked to my traditional Vet today and they have several clients that see him as well, Azzy being the first with cancer from her regular office, they want me to keep them posted on the treatments and response for future patient referrals.

Dr. Rowan is a true example of an individual who enters a profession because he has a genuine passion and interest in the well being of our furry babies! He has spoiled my Baby Bear Scout who now has expectations of being seen by Dr. Rowan daily. Dr. Rowan has also been treating an infection in my Bear's knee with his laser therapy program. I believe, during the few weeks of treatment, we have seen huge signs of success. I am a believer in holistic healing for myself and I am extremely grateful to have been introduced to Dr. Rowan by my own personal chiropractor. Thanks to Dr. Rowan, my Baby Bear is not going to have to endure an invasive surgery that would have probably led to bigger complications. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you Dr. Rowan and your team for the wonderful work that you do and most of all - for the compassion and love you all share with my furry baby! 5 stars is not enough for the priceless service you provide.Read Less

My 11 year old pug was limping and very uncomfortable. A friend told me about Dr. Rowan. He worked his magic with Chiropractic and other modalities plus diet and homeopathic aids. It took a while but he is back to his old self. I highly recommend this practice. The staff is great and love the pet patients. I am so happy that I didn't just go to my vet and get the usual x-rays and pain meds etc. and probably not have good success. The fees are reasonable when you consider the typical vet visits and all the test that go along with that. I hope to have him for much longer now as a trim healthy pug. Read Less
