Innovative CAre for Pets
In Edmonton, Canada, a chiropractor and a veterinarian have teamed up to provide drugfree alternative health care for pets. One day a week, the chiropractor adjusts animals' spines to give them pain-relieving tune-ups. The veterianarian gives pets acupuncutne treatment. The pets and their owners are very happy with the innovative treatment. Professionals, however, aren't happy because, they caution, there are no standards for such treatment. So far, the techniques must be acquired in the U.S. as there are no schools teaching them in Canada.
