Gemma's hind legs suddenly became paralysed in January 2020 after chasing a ball. This was due to fibrocartilaginous embolism (FCE). We have been blessed to help many paralysed pets to walk again over the last few years using acupuncture, physical rehabilitation, laser therapy and veterinary chiropractic. Gemma was walking well again 3 months later.
A fibrocartilaginous embolism typically occurs during times of activity, such as running or jumping. The majority of dogs will yelp once, or seem painful at first, but later there is typically no pain associated with this disease. The usual signs are a very abrupt loss of function. The first 6 weeks following paralysis or hind leg weakness is the most crucial time to start neurological rehabilitation as the spinal cord has the ability to regenerate. Check out the video of Gemma's progress. Thank you very much to Stuart Reece for the use of his song “Burn".
