16th October,2013 is World Spine Day.
THE AIMS OF WORLD SPINE DAY ARE TO:
- Raise awareness about spinal health and spine disorders within the interdisciplinary health care community and amongst public policy decision-makers and the general public.
- To provide an opportunity for and encourage ongoing discussion about the burden of spinal disorders
- To promote an interdisciplinary, collaborative approach to easing the burden of spinal disorders.
Inter-vertebral Disc Disease ( IVDD ) is the most commonly
occurring Neurological affection in Dogs.
Acupuncture has now been widely accepted as a procedure for
the management and rehabilitation from Spinal diseases in Dogs in conjunction
with the conventional therapy.
Spinal cord diseases often are accompanied with a poor
prognosis, some dogs remain paralyzed for life.
Early diagnosis leads
to a faster initiation of therapy which increases the chances of recovery.
We wish to create awareness about the Spinal cord diseases
amongst the Pet-Parents.
