Back in Motion Veterinary Services

Back in Motion Veterinary Services is owned by Dr. Tifani Torres. My focus is on whole body wellness, which includes holistic integration.

I am Dr. Tifani Torres, the owner and primary veterinarian at Back in Motion. I am originally from Texas which is where I first fell in love with horses and wildlife. I attended Texas A&M and received a degree in Animal Science in 2008. I developed a fascination for reproduction during that time of my life and was determinded to make it part of my career. I went on to Ross University for vet school, and made sure to take full advantage of all that life had to offer at that time. I took veterinary related volunteer trips to Africa, Nicaragua, The Galapagos Islands and Puerto Rico to expand my understanding of veterinary needs in countries outside of the US. It was during this time that I found a passion for equine sports medicine as well. I finished up school back at A&M and continued to pursue training in reproduction and lameness. Life took me to Florida, and after 3 years doing quite a variety of veterinary medicine, I decided to follow my heart and open my own business. Florida also happens to be the home of the Chi Institute which I was drawn to after realizing the limitations of western medicine in regards to catching early signs of equine lameness and injury. I attended the 6 month acupuncture course and was amazed by what I had been missing by only practicing western medicine. I will forever incorporate the two very different types of medicine into every case I see, and hope to futher my training in this very fascinating world!

🥳 Everyone welcome Dr. Crews! Starting in January you will notice her friendly face at the clinic twice a week to help us out! Dr Crews went to the same vet school as I did, teaches at the same Chiropractic college I do, and is equally as passionate about integrative medicine for small and large animals as I am. We are two peas in a pod. The primary difference you will notice between us is that she has naturally curly hair 😝 With her helping us out we will be able to open up more availability for farm calls 🙌🏻 We will give more details over the next few weeks, but wanted to go ahead and share so we can make her feel welcome 🤗

🐾 Did you know most cats hide their pain—especially when it comes to arthritis? 🐱💔
Osteoarthritis is incredibly common in cats, especially as they age, but it often goes undiagnosed because cats are masters at masking discomfort.

Here’s why their pain is so often overlooked:

✨ Subtle Signs
Cats rarely limp or cry out. Instead, they show tiny changes—hesitating before jumping, sleeping more, grooming less, or avoiding stairs. Many owners mistake these for “just getting older.”

✨ Instinct to Hide Pain
In the wild, showing weakness makes a cat vulnerable. That instinct is still strong today, which means they stay quiet even when they’re hurting.

✨ Chronic Pain = Slow Change
Arthritis develops gradually. Because the signs appear little by little, they often slip under the radar until the discomfort is significant.

✨ Normalizing Behavior
When cats avoid play or stop exploring, owners often think their personality has changed—when really, they’re trying to move less because movement hurts.

👉 The good news? Arthritis pain can be managed with early detection, pain control, joint support, environmental changes, and veterinary care.

If your cat is slowing down, jumping less, or “acting old,” it might be more than age—it might be pain. A simple mobility exam can make a world of difference.

💛 Let’s give our cats the comfort they deserve.

Frank is an example of why we never give up and always keep learning! He took a lot of time, effort and dedication before we saw any improvement. I was even starting to want to have a different talk, but I was wrong! Meds, acupuncture, chiropractic and laser weren’t working. HERBS made a significant difference for him. This is why as doctors we can never stop learning, and always be open to other options. Frank proves that alternative medicine is just medicine.

We are taking much needed time to refresh and rest over this holiday weekend! We will be back in the office Monday December 1.

Because I’m terrible at social media, I have not discussed the EHV outbreak in Texas, but I’m sure by now you’ve seen plenty of posts about it. Out of protection for client horses and my personal horses, we will wait until Dec 10 to start seeing horses again. Thank you for understanding!

Did you know 👀 Dr Torres LOVES cats. 🐱 Barn cats especially can work their magic on her and are a welcome distraction on horse days. At her home, you can catch her chatting with her kitties every morning and cuddling with them on the couch when she’s (rarely) at home. She says certain cats just make life feel so good. (Others can ruin your day but we won’t talk about those 🤣)

11/03/2025

We will be seeing horses this Wednesday at our Waxahachie location! Chiropractic, Acupuncture, Shockwave treatments available. Give us a call or send us a text to get on the schedule (and get the location).

Let's talk MUZZLES and MUZZLE TRAINING!

Muzzles are an excellent tool that allows for an additional level of safety when working with canines. Let's talk about some of the realities of muzzle use in the veterinary rehabilitation field:

When performing orthopedic exams, even the most behaved of pets may react to the pain we find. This is NORMAL and expected, but the most common place a pet will instinctively bite is the examiner's hands or face. Let's review the good and bad of using a muzzle:

✅ If I know I am safe and the dog is safe, I am more relaxed when examining a pet and more likely to dig deep to find subtle pain.
✅ It is common for veterinarians to use a muzzle while your pet gets to know us, but once we are besties, no muzzles are required.
✅ A dog that is conditioned to a muzzle couldn't care less when one is applied.

❌ If I know there is even a slight chance of being bitten, I am equally as focused on preventing a bite as I am searching for pain. Dogs sense stress immediately, and no matter how calm I look, they KNOW I know, ya know? And no one wants to discuss rabies quarantine.
❌Bites to my hands could be career-ending. This is not only devastating to other pets, but to my family's future as well. Ive had many pets come after me and then the owner says they figured that would happen. This is not fair to me, my staff, or your pet. If you even *think* your pet may react, speak up and request a muzzle for the initial visit.
❌ A dog that has never seen a muzzle can find them stressful and frustrating. This is NOT an excuse not to use them in clinic, it is a reason for them to be introduced before visiting the vet.

If you are triggered by this post, or do not see muzzles as a positive invention, please visit:

Hopefully you can reframe your thoughts around these wonderful tools, and understand we are NOT punishing your animal when we use them. We are just trying to do the best job we can, safely!
