Dogs & Human Health: The New Science of Dog Therapy & Therapy Dogs - Paperback

by Penkowa (Author)

What if you could significantly improve your physical and mental health by taking a simple step that's easy, rewarding, and fun?

Dr. Milena Penkowa says you can do that and more by owning a dog - and yet people continue to invest time and money in costly treatments before even considering a furry friend.

Dogs can stave off diseases and certain cancers, erase pain, and ease anxiety, depression, allergies, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders. Over the long term, they can also reduce the burden of dementia, epilepsy, stroke, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia and autism.

This guidebook explains the scientifically proven benefits of dogs, and you'll learn how dogs:

- change the human brain so it reacts and thinks differently; - improve the immune system to make you more resilient than dog deprived individuals; - boost and invigorate the human spirit and secure happiness; - promote a life of longevity and healthiness.

Stop looking for fancy remedies to physical and mental problems, and start looking for a dog wagging its tail. Tap into a natural method to survive and thrive by learning about the fascinating connections between Dogs & Human Health.
