Pet Acupuncture

Pet acupuncture

Acupuncture is based on the belief that there are energy pathways (or meridians) throughout the body, and that illness or injury can occur when these pathways are blocked. Acupuncture involves the stimulation of certain points along these pathways, using thin needles. This stimulation helps to release the blockages and restore balance within the body.

Acupuncture can be an effective treatment for a variety of conditions in both dogs and cats. It can be used to relieve pain, improve circulation, and boost the immune system. It can also be helpful for gastrointestinal issues, skin problems, and behavioral disorders. At Shelton Veterinary Center, our experienced veterinarians will work with you to develop a customized treatment plan for your pet. Pet acupuncture is just one of the many ways that we can help your furry friend live a long and healthy life.
