What is Pet Acupuncture?

Acupuncture provides dogs and cats with many of the same healing benefits that humans can experience with treatment. Unlike traditional Western medicine, which typically relies on medication to treat symptoms, cat and dog acupuncture employs the use of small needles to stimulate areas of the body to trigger natural pain relief and healing. In other words, acupuncture urges the body to use its own healing abilities to treat a wide range of conditions.
