BReINThis page "Touching for acute trauma"But as explained, touching works wonders not only for chronic pain, but also for acute pain.

One of BReIN's "Ring Tap" is a touching technology that is used for various symptoms including pain.“Canine Epilepsy”(The photo at the top of the page is the actual scene).

The owner was surprised, but even more so was the surgeon himself (the director).

I knew that it was effective for human epilepsy, but I didn't expect it to cure animal epilepsy, especially a dog with a severe case of epilepsy, which the veterinarian had told him that "any more seizures would be life-threatening." teeth!
