Acupuncture is a great complimentary therapy to add to any on-going treatment plan. It does not interact with commonly prescribed treatment protocols or medications and can be readily added to help manage chronic pain, chronic inflammation, neurologic conditions, and even metabolic disorders including kidney and liver disease.
Acupuncture
- alleviates pain
- boosts the immune system
- helps reduce inflammation
- promotes muscle relaxation
- improves tissue oxygenation
Acupuncture should be considered as an addition to any treatment protocol, but is commonly over-looked until traditional medical approaches are not adequately addressing a pet’s pain or medical condition. Use of acupuncture early in the course of a disease can help improve quality of life and promote optimal health and overall wellbeing.
Acupuncture itself is extremely safe, is well tolerated and can reduce the need for medications. What have you got to lose?!
