s your dog in pain? Maybe you haven’t considered it before but alternative, holistic treatments like acupuncture, massage therapy, and chiropratic are increasingly being used to solve a whole host of canine problems. Once the preserve of humans patients, these age-old therapies with New Age panache are steadily encroaching into the animal kingdom. Some of the success stories are so astounding they may make a willing participant of even the staunchest Western medicine adherent. Dr. Laurie McCauley, a veterinarian who has a string of accreditations after her name attesting to her expertise in acupuncture and chiropractic, has used the 2,000-year-old healing art of acupuncture to treat everything from skin problems to muscular-skeletal pain to neurological issues.
