Here, we will discuss what pet acupuncture is, the benefits of the technique, and the conditions it can be used to treat in dogs and cats.
What Is Pet Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a technique that involves the insertion of thin needles into the skin at specific points. This technique has been used for centuries in Eastern medicine to treat a variety of conditions. The theory behind acupuncture is that it can help to release blocked energy in the body and promote its natural healing.
Pet acupuncture is performed by trained professionals who have extensive hours of experience practicing this technique.
The needles used for pet acupuncture are much thinner than those used for human acupuncture and are less likely to cause discomfort.
