In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, we sit down with Neil Barnsley from Animal Holistic Therapies, a practitioner whose expertise in chiropractic and acupuncture for dogs has changed countless lives. Neil was one of the key people who helped Ladybug walk again, proving the power of alternative therapies in canine rehabilitation.
Neil’s journey into holistic animal treatments was inspired by both his father and grandfather, who introduced him to these healing methods. Over the years, he has worked with a wide variety of breeds, from those with severe spinal injuries to dogs given poor prognoses—many of whom he has helped regain mobility.
During this conversation, we discuss the effectiveness of chiropractic adjustments and acupuncture in treating mobility issues, spinal conditions, and chronic pain in dogs. Whether you’re new to these therapies or curious about their benefits, Neil shares compelling insights into how alternative medicine can support canine health and recovery.
