Can a vet act as a chirochopper too?

keep your eye on her. Probably should pay a visit to the vet. If she dislocated or broke something, the vet should be able to fix her up easily.
BTW...it's a little known fact that cats are NOTORIOUS for hiding the fact that they are in pain. They rarely show outward signs that they are in pain, even when they are.
I don't think it would hurt anything if you gentlly felt and squeezed (not super hard) her legs and feet. See if you get different reactions that would indicate that a specific foot or leg is tender.

I think you mean chiropractor...no big deal everyone misspells something now and then.
If the cat is limping you should take her in and have the Vet check her out.
She may have just twisted something or it maybe dislocated you're Vet will be able to tell you what if anything is wrong and he/she will be able to help kitty.
Good luck

You should check this Sciatica Natural Treatment

Normally, I would not answer a question like this as my expertise is generally in medication but I had severe sciatica while I was pregnant with my 3rd child (after having had twins) and I had sciatica so bad that I was finding it difficult to walk. I tried massage therapy and physical therapy and could not take medication
I went to the chiropractor and the pain was instantly relieved. My hips and lower back were out of alignment because I had carried twins the year before. On occasion a Doctor of Osteopathy (DO) can also work but they usually only work on one joint at a time - the chiropractor will do your whole back which works faster. Anyone who does not believe in chiropractors will tell you they are quacks - don't listen.
I don't necessarily believe that chiropractors can cure things like diabetes but they can definitely relieve some types of back pain especially if a pinched nerve is involved which is usually the cause of sciatica. Try a reputable chiropractor ASAP!

I think the cat needs to see the vet. Cats don't usually show pain, even if it's severe because it's a sign of weakness. Better safe than sorry!

Check in your area for a veterinarian chiropractor. Your local pet stores or health food store may have a number of one in your area.
I have taken my cats to a chiropractic vet and they love it. In addition to adjustments, the vet can give you a list of supplements that will help heal the injury. Good luck and better landings!

a vet should be able to put the leg back in place if that is what is wrong. I would take it to the vet because it could lead to something else that might help her later in life
