Acupuncture
Veterinary acupuncture is an ancient healing technique that involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific points on your pet’s body. These acupuncture points are strategically chosen to stimulate and balance the body’s energy, known as Qi (pronounced “chee”). By restoring the proper flow of Qi, acupuncture can alleviate pain, improve mobility, and promote overall wellness.
What to Expect During an Acupuncture Session
During an acupuncture session, your pet will be gently and comfortably positioned to ensure their safety and relaxation. Fine needles are then inserted at specific points, typically for about 20-30 minutes. Most pets find the process painless and even enjoy the soothing experience.
How can acupuncture benefit your pet:
Pain Management
Acupuncture is a non-invasive way to manage pain, making it a valuable option for pets suffering from arthritis, injuries, or chronic pain conditions.
Enhanced Mobility
Pets experiencing mobility issues often see improvements in their range of motion and joint flexibility after receiving acupuncture treatments.
Stress Reduction
Acupuncture can help reduce anxiety and stress in pets, making it a suitable option for those with behavioral issues.
Improved Healing
It can accelerate the body’s natural healing processes, making it particularly useful for post-operative recovery.
