Benefits of Pet Acupuncture
Acupuncture, a practice that has been around for thousands of years, is rooted in the idea of energy flowing through pathways known as meridians within the body. In traditional Chinese medicine, illness is thought to occur when this energy flow becomes disrupted or unbalanced. By targeting specific acupuncture points along these meridians, balance can be restored, promoting better health and helping to relieve various conditions.
For pets, acupuncture offers significant benefits, particularly in providing pain relief and supporting the healing process, all without the use of medication. This makes it an ideal choice for pets who may experience adverse effects from drugs or for those who require complementary therapy alongside their current treatment.
The process of veterinary acupuncture is relatively simple. We will first assess your pet’s condition and then insert thin needles into specific points on the body. The needles are left in place for a few minutes, and then they are removed. Most pets tolerate acupuncture well, and some even seem to enjoy it.
