Review: Wonderful book - Wonderful book to have on hand. It lists symptoms and treatments for cats and dogs health problems. It contains advice on an animals diet as well as acupressure points to help balance our animals that are having health issues.
Review: My dog's veterinary/acupuncturist recommended this book. - This book is fantastic! I learned massage techniques and acupressure points to relieve my dogs' pain. My black lab has a lower lumbar and neck injury. Typical black lab was chasing a bunny and not watching where she was running, slammed head-first into a chain link fence. Drawings of internal organ placement show how and why the acupressure works for any particular ailment or pain. And who doesn't love a massage. The book also describes how and where to massage for best effect. This book covers info about herbs altho my vet supplies me with our herbs. All these things have helped dramatically with her pain. I will never put my dogs on NSAIDS again. The herbs are not harmful and my dogs tolerate them so much easier. I also have a German shepard that has licked all the hair off of an area in front of her hind leg on her lower abdomen. I read here that a dog will try to compensate for pain in one area by licking herself in another. I don't know exactly where she hurts, but by carefully trying the acupressure and massage techniques she has stopped licking that spot. Her hair should grow back soon. Like my veterinarian, I don't recommend the diet. There is a lot of info on the internet about "species appropriate" nutrition for dogs/carnivores, which of course includes wolves. Dogs teeth are for tearing raw meat, but for crunching on smaller bones than wolves can manage with their large canine teeth. Raw meaty bones (RMBs) are my dogs' mainstay. Rawfed.com dispells the myths of raw feeding. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to help relieve their dog of pain or other health problem. My lab is doing so much better with natural remedies than with the steroids, NSAIDS, and lipioids which the other specialty vets had her popping all day long. She couldn't even stand. Now it's hard to keep her calm. teeth are for tearing raw meat

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Four Paws Five Directions
*by B***D on April 19, 2012*

Four Paws and Five Directions is written by Cheryl Schwartz, a veterinarian. It is a very informative book and it can help you understand what your vet is trying to accomplish. The book is well illustrated and shows you the points for acupuncture. Chinese medicine is based on the natural elements. The Chinese saw similarities between natural elements and the body. The body is divided into Meridians . One of the meridians is called the Triple Heater. It describes temperature regulation in the body. Each meridian has a time that is performs at its best Along with the Five Elements and Meridians, there is a system of Ying and Yang and the rest of the eight principles. The eight principles are based upon qualitity,quantity, and location of a problem. In addition the external environment is taken into account. The book talks about Jing Essence, which is similar to DNA in western medicine The spirit is part of the healing process. There is a chapter on herbs . Chinese medicine is known as TCM. It can sometimes denote a pattern of imbalance that would not show up in a Western type health clinic TCM restores balance to the body. It does not suppress or kill parts of the body. It is a gentle healing process and the Whole is taken into account. Another chapter discusses food and how the food can aid in healing. Temperature, flavors,ying and yang, and methods of mixing all have a part in the healing process Foods mimic the Season. Summer are hot foods(peppers)Fall the foods are sweet and sour(barley, sweet potato, duck,and string beans)are examples . The book is full of colorful information, and I recommend it to anyone wanting to know more about Chinese Medicine.It is a very interesting read!
