How Can Acupuncture Help My Pet?

Acupuncture is a popular alternative therapy that promotes healing, pain relief, and internal health. It stimulates tissue regeneration, improves blood flow, and can serve as a preventive measure, reducing the reliance on invasive treatments and medications for pets. This medical technique can help pets of all species, breeds, and ages deal with the following issues:

​

  • Chronic pain

  • Inflammation

  • Arthritis

  • Muscle spasms

  • Sprains

  • Tendonitis

  • Feline hyperthyroidism

  • Epilepsy

  • Stroke

  • Cystitis

  • Vomiting

  • Asthma

  • Skin allergies

​

Our experienced veterinarians often recommend acupuncture for your pet after a surgical procedure or injury to help support their healing process and manage discomfort and chronic joint pain caused by arthritis or other issues. Acupuncture, when paired with other forms of treatment, rehabilitation, and medication, can reduce your pet's pain, discomfort, and inflammation.
