Pet Acupuncture

Acupuncture, a key component of Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM), is a time-tested technique that uses thin needles inserted into specific points of the body to restore equilibrium and support healing. By stimulating these points, acupuncture helps to relax muscles, stimulate blood flow, and release natural pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory substances. This can provide relief for a variety of conditions, including musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal, respiratory, skin, neurologic, and behavioral disorders. Acupuncture can also aid in managing symptoms such as pain, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, and anorexia. With our expertise in TCVM and holistic approaches, we tailor acupuncture treatments to suit the needs of dogs and cats.
