Japan�s Centenarian Doctor Advocates Animal Therapies In Hospitals

The advice from the good doctor: http://hubpages.com/health/How-to-live-a-long-and-happy-life (lots of useful and practical tips for healthy living)

Dr Shigeaki Hinohara will be 104 this year!

The part about animal therapies:

The best way to overcome pain is to forget pain by having fun. If a child has a toothache, and if you start playing a game with him, he will immediately forget the pain. At Dr. Hinohara’s St. Luke’s hospital, they have music and animal therapies and also art classes. He believes that hospitals must cater for the basic needs of their patients.
