Well, this is it. . . the very last post in the Animals with Scoliosis Series, which started in the beginning of February.
To close, we have an albino alligator who lives in Brazil. Instead of having wheels, a brace, or physical therapy, this little fellow has acupuncture sessions. It helps to alleviate his pain and keep the vital functions keep working. I have read of humans using acupuncture for their scoliosis, so it’s fascinating to see how that treatment method was carried over to animals like back braces and therapy were.

I wonder who was brave enough to learn enough about alligators to get so close and test out needles/acupuncture, poking through that tough skin, knowing their nerve positions and pressure points, etc. Holy Cow or something to that effect !!!
