Pet Acupuncture Procedure
Before each session, our vets will thoroughly examine your pet and take you through everything you and your pet can expect. We'll create a personalized treatment plan depending on their health condition, current or recurring ailments and medical history. We’ll discuss what acupuncture might look like for your pet, how often they’ll need sessions and other treatment methods that can be combined to help their healing.
Each session lasts 20-30 minutes, with tiny needles stimulating your pet's circulation and nervous system. Sedation or anesthesia is unnecessary, as the process is painless, often resulting in pets falling asleep. Multiple sessions are recommended to observe the effects and results.
