About Acupuncture

Veterinary acupuncture is a holistic and complementary therapeutic approach that focuses on promoting the well-being and health of animals. Drawing from traditional Chinese medicine principles, veterinarians trained in acupuncture use fine needles to stimulate specific points on an animal’s body, aiming to restore the balance of energy and enhance the body’s natural healing abilities.

This non-invasive and drug-free technique has gained popularity as a valuable option for helping manage various conditions in pets, including pain, musculoskeletal issues, and neurological disorders, providing an alternative or complementary treatment alongside conventional veterinary care. Veterinary acupuncture emphasizes the overall health and vitality of animals, contributing to their improved quality of life.

While some animals feel better immediately during or after a treatment, chronic conditions may take multiple treatments to see a result. For this reason, it is recommended to commit to at least 3-5 sessions to assess if acupuncture is working for your pet.
