Veterinary Acupuncture Treatment for Pets

According to ancient Chinese medical philosophy, disease is the result of an imbalance or blockage of energy in the body. Acupuncture is believed to balance this energy and release the blockage, thereby assisting the body to heal disease. It involves the insertion of fine sterile needles in specific points of the body. These points are highly innervated and highly vascularized (lots of blood and nerve supply) making them great points to promote healing, hemostasis and pain relief. Using anatomy, physiology, and pathology and involving an important type of physical exam called “myofascial palpation” allows the doctor to locate sources of discomfort and dysfunction.

Acupuncture can also be useful as an adjunct to Western therapy. Conditions that may respond especially well include:

Musculoskeletal complaints, like osteoarthritis, knee pain, back pain, neck pain, painful joints, and muscle issues
Digestive problems like motility problems and inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract
Respiratory issues like rhinitis, sinusitis, and recurrent infection
Neurologic problems like disc disease, back injuries, spinal cord, injuries, and nerve based problems

Benefits of Veterinary Acupuncture

Veterinary acupuncture offers numerous benefits for pets. It can alleviate pain, promote relaxation, and enhance overall well-being. This holistic approach stimulates the body’s natural healing processes, aiding in the management of various conditions such as arthritis and neurological disorders. Veterinary acupuncture also complements traditional treatments, providing a non-invasive option with minimal side effects, improving the quality of life for pets.

I want to thank all the techs, and Vets at Quakertown. You all saved my Postygirls life this past Sunday. You’re all fabulous, kind, and compassionate. If it wasn’t for all of you, I wouldn’t having the pleasure of walking my girl back into our home. You are all truly loved by our family, and wouldn’t take any of our pets anywhere else BUT to Quakertown. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

As a show breeder, i count on a good and understanding vet for all my dogs genetic and ofa testing. QVC has been just that. They are understanding and kinda and not against breeders like some vets are. They help side by side with you to ensure you are bringing forth the healthiest puppies and adults possible. Its a 45 min drive from where i live but i would drive further way for the care that they provide to my dogs. If you are a show breeder, and need those important OFA tests, QVC is your one stop shop!!
