My dog had Spondylosis and i paid a fortune for her to have acupuncture, at the time her back legs were useless she was just dragging her back end ...it was very sad to she her struggle and we were on the point of having an other wise healthy 4 year old dog but to sleep . my vet told me of a chap who worked with dogs with this problem so we went to see him. she had 6 treatments and gained the use of her back legs again , and lived until she was 18 with just a few odd limps only needing pain killers ...so you cant tell me the dog knew and it was all in her mind ...I then went on to have treatments on elbow , back and knee... some worked some didnt , i think its dont to the skill of the person doing it and being lucky in getting the right place ....Re: Do you beliebve in alternative medicine?
For months my husband went to an acupuncturist who trained for 10 years in china, it cost a small fortune and did nothing at all to alleviate his pain.Re: Do you beliebve in alternative medicine?

While I don't believe in rubbish like homoeopathy and spiritual healing, or the even more laughable crystal healing fad, obviously some plants and herbs do help. That's not so much alternative medicine as the basis for modern, refined medications. They still work, as they have done for hundreds of years. I only use them in conjunction with modern medications though.
