Support for Joint Health and Improved Circulation

How It Works:

It’s heart-breaking to see an older dog struggling to get to its feet and not be able to go on its walks. At night, they may scrabble ineffectively to rise, becoming agitated and soiling themselves in the process.

Worse still is the small dog that becomes paralyzed from degenerative discs. Some dogs can get out for their walks but have hunched stiff backs that make them stagger; or they may have to hop on one leg because of nerve or joint issues.

All of these dogs suffer from diminished circulation to their spinal column that gets even worse in cold wet weather and especially at night, when they often wake their owners with their panting and pacing just to get the blood flowing through their aching joints. Some dogs even wake screaming at night if the stiffness has progressed to neck vertebrae fixations and spasms.

These dogs need increased circulation to halt the degeneration and normalize the inflammatory response, restore suppleness, and relieve nerve and spinal cord impingement. Physical therapies like acupuncture, chiropractic and PEMF along with a real food diet help greatly to restore normal blood flow to the spine and so do formulas like Lumbrex, which has been used for these purposes for over 1400 years.

As circulation improves, older dogs start to stabilize within the first several days to weeks, allowing drugs to slowly be discontinued. Disc dogs may take a few months to walk again but chiropractic, acupuncture and PEMF expedites and improves results.

Once the maximum benefit of Lumbrex is seen, consider adding Voltrex to spark further improvements. For FCE cases or disc dogs where surgical repair was attempted but now the dog is worse, use Voltrex first. Transition to Lumbrex only once initial improvements are finally seen. Reduce amount in the event of loose stools.

Dosing:

Lumbrex is an organically grown concentrated herbal extract in powdered form. Lumbrex acts more quickly and completely if your pet is fed a real food meat- and vegetable-based diet, and if they receive physical therapies like chiropractic, acupuncture, massage, and PEMF

To use, just fold the herbs into your pet's real food diet or shake them up with broth or water and pour them over top if using canned or kibble.

As a suggested starting dose, give twice daily as follows:

• Up to 15 pounds: 1/8 tsp
• 15 to 40 pounds: 1/4 tsp
• 40 to 70 pounds: 1/2 tsp
• 70 to 110 pounds: 3/4 tsp
• Over 110 pounds: 1 tsp

If benefits are not seen, the dose can be safely doubled.

It's fine to use our products in cats. They just don't work as consistently in cats as they do in dogs. Sometimes cats need other things, and often just respond to the feeding of a real food diet. The dose for cats is about 1/8 tsp twice a day in a capsule or something they are happy to eat.

One bottle of Lumbrex lasts over a month for dogs 50 lbs and under; and for two weeks for 100 lb dogs.
