Chronic cranial cruciate ligament disease can lead to CCL tears or leave the knee joint vulnerable to injury.
Did you know there are alternative conservative medical therapies available to heal and restore function?
He is one more happy girl, “Muffet”
Surgery is often recommended and advised. However, when the orthopedic exam shows enough stability to the joint, options are available.
Muffet is a senior girl who has heart and kidney disease- surgery was not an option for her. 🥰🎊
…🎉Way to go Buckley!🏆
He has benefited from integrative therapies, which means: diet therapy, herbal medicine, laser therapy, acupuncture + electro acupuncture and physical rehabilitation. This is not a quick process. It is a gradual healing and strengthening over 4 to 6 months.
As with any breed, French bulldogs are predisposed to getting certain diseases. For example, many German shepherds are more likely to have hip problems. Cocker spaniels are more likely to get ear infections. Dachshunds are known for developing back problems such as intervertebral disc disease (IVDD).
French bulldogs have grown immensely in popularity over the last few years and are also quickly becoming known for developing intervertebral disc disease. In fact, some weeks I see more French bulldogs than I do dachshunds.
Since IVDD is so common in French bulldogs, it can come on suddenly and can cause permanent inability to use their limbsW

There’s nothing better than an honest testimony from one of our clients.
Physical rehabilitation, custom diet therapy, herbal medicine and acupuncture principles to heal bilateral partial CCL tears.
Rehab is essential to success preoperatively and postoperatively. Way to go Ms. Layla. She is recovering from thoracic disc surgery.
Physical rehabilitation is essential in both the pre and postoperative patient.
Meet Miss Layla, she is recovering from back surgery and doing well.
She has been treated with combined therapies: acupuncture to decrease pain and swelling around the spinal cord and move blood to the recovering tissues, herbal medicine and a regular physical therapy program. Post surgery, she was not given a good prognosis. However, with synergistic integrative therapies she’s come a long way 🥰👏😘⭐️

Eight weeks post systemic and local spine stem cell treatment. He has been treated the past 8 weeks with combined integrative therapies of physical rehabilitation, acupuncture, food therapy and herbal medicines.

He was left as a quadriplegic.

Way to go Skully!
Meet Skully- He was nearly
Non ambulatory. CT scan showed multi focal cervical to T-L spinal DJD/IVDD.
Ozone-therapy+ (EAP) electoacupunctue has been used in humans and dogs as a coadjutant treatment in intervertebral disc disease. Ozone (O3) is helpful due to its analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Here we used ozone saturated saline injections for Skully to oxygenate the spinal tissues. This treatment is used as an adjunctive treatment with intervertebral disc protrusions (Hansen Type II/Chronic).
Part 2 Blu’s clinical progress.
Blu is making wonderful progress. He has gone from being a quadriplegic to now using all four limbs.
Stem Cells were given both systemically and locally to treat the spinal cord contusion. Way to go Blu!
Meet Aja-she’s being managed very well with conservative medical therapies and has a good quality of life. 
After a neurologic exam to localize the pain and consultation with a neurologist in collaboration for her treatment plan, she has regained a quality of life.
We are very thankful!
She went from severe pain, unable to stand and use her left front leg and after weekly treatments for three weeks she is responding nicely and back to playing with her toys again.
Part 1 -Blu’s clinical progress:
We have the challenge of working with many spinal disease patients.
Meet Blu -who suffered a high impact spinal cord trauma. Blu was a quadriplegic and is making some major accomplishments.
We are using multiple therapies (physical rehabilitation, massage, hydrotherapy, acupuncture, electro acupuncture, laser, diet and herbal medicine) to help him regain life again. Will keep you posted on his progress in the weeks to come.
