Laser and Chiropractic Treatment


My friend Gail, who is a vet with specialized chiropractic skills and her husband Elroy, who handles the laser treatments, stopped by for their monthly visit with us.

I have really long, full ears and dating back to when I was a little puppy, I've had problems with itchiness in my ears. Partly, it's because I have full ears that trap moisture and partly because my brother Owen insists on licking the insides of my ears, which of course puts moisture in there and partly because they get warm and stuff.

I've had various preparations squirted into my ears from the vet, a homeopathy olive oil and garlic preparation (Owen really liked that one), and an ear flush but lately we've been trying out a laser. It's kind of warm and the deep heat seems to relieve most of the itchiness without that icky feeling of stuff running down the insides of your ears that makes me shake my head like in the Exorcist. 



Once Elroy finished "lasering" my ears, it was over 
to my buddy Gail for some adjustments.


A little to the left please...


Yup, that's the spot.


Neck massage.


Checking the other end.


 Shoulders...and we're done :) Bye for now.
