Veterinary Medical Acupuncture
Western veterinary acupuncture is the use of evidence and research based acupuncture points and protocols.
The advantage for your pet is that all the points chosen are based on your pet's medical exam, trigger points, and diagnosis using modern medical techniques. Typical sessions vary from 10-30 minutes. Most pets show no signs of discomfort during therapy and enjoy their treatments.
Western acupuncture can treat a large variety of conditions with few - if any - side effects.
