IVCA Member Spotlight

I am Dr. Anthony Portuesi, I pursued my doctorate at New York Chiropractic College (Northeast College of Health Sciences).
I approached the doctorate with great passion, dedication and determination, characteristics that were recognized through scholarships, honors and meritocratic plaques/Awards. I obtained several specializations during my doctorate to broaden my vision of patient care (athletes, pregnancy and geriatric).
In addition to this, I am also a Veterinary Chiropractor, one of the few recognized in Italy by the IVCA - International Veterinary Chiropractic Association.
I am also an active member of the Italian Chiropractors Association A.I.C.
My goal is to help your animal to achieve its optimal health.

IVCA Member Spotlight

Jaana Tainio, DVM, Cert IVCA, Cert ASTR, Resident ACVSMR
Hi, my name is Jaana Tainio, and I am a Finnish veterinarian and a veterinary chiropractor. I run my own veterinary hospital nestled in the deep forests of Finland, where I lead a dedicated team of nine veterinarians and nurses.

I graduated from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Uppsala in 2000 and later pursued veterinary chiropractic studies at the IAVC in Sittensen, Germany. In 2012, I earned my chiropractic certification through the IVCA, where I have been an active member ever since. In 2022, with support from the IVCA, I conducted a small research study on the effects of chiropractic treatment on horses. My primary focus is on equine orthopedics and rehabilitation, and I am passionate about applying chiropractic principles to assess patients and implement preventive care.

Currently, I am pursuing a residency in Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, with the goal of advancing my expertise even further. Throughout my career, I’ve always been driven to share knowledge to both clients and colleagues. I firmly believe that education is the key to improving animal care, not only to improve the lives of animals but also cultivate a sense of respect for all living beings.
