Could your pet benefit from natural pain relief?
Acupuncture is a powerful and highly effective tool for helping companion animals enjoy more comfortable lives. Best of all, it’s completely natural so there’s no risk of harmful side effects that pharmaceuticals can occasionally cause. This makes it especially beneficial for elderly pets or those who cannot tolerate medication.
Holistic Pet Care Center of Oklahoma is pleased to include veterinary acupuncture as part of our integrative therapy services.
What is veterinary acupuncture?
Acupuncture is based on the theory that when the body’s energy source becomes disrupted, sickness and pain can occur. To address this without the use of medication, acupuncture
needles are gently inserted into specific points along the body, causing a cellular response in the targeted area. This naturally restores the body’s energy, thereby promoting healing and reducing pain.
What conditions can be treated through acupuncture?
Acupuncture can be used to address and manage a variety of health concerns. It can also be used to boost the immune system and support ongoing wellness. Some of the conditions commonly treated with acupuncture include:
- Arthritis
- Back Pain
- Joint Problems
- Sprains and Strains
- Hip Dysplasia
- Respiratory Problems
- Digestive Issues
- Neurological Conditions
- Senior Pet Health
How many treatments will my pet need?
The results of acupuncture can sometimes be noticeable after only a few sessions. That being said, every pet is different. The specific condition, its severity and a number of other factors will help our doctors determine how many treatment sessions may be needed. Once your pet has been thoroughly evaluated, we’ll provide you with an individualized treatment recommendation.
If your animal friend is struggling with pain or mobility issues or could just use a little more balance, acupuncture may be the ideal solution. Contact Holistic Pet Care Center of Oklahoma today to learn more or schedule a consultation.
