The goal of Veterinary Acupuncture is to keep dogs & cats happy, healthy and free of pain. I aim to enjoy a long term relationship with my clients and will continually strive to practice the highest quality veterinary medicine, focus on the most effective and least invasive methods available, and offer the finest products and services.
General Introduction
After practicing regular and emergency veterinary medicine for a few years, I began to feel somewhat boxed in by conventional medical and surgical routines. Through much study and practice, I became a certified acupuncturist. With this additional aspect of my career, I hope to accomplish my mission by seeing my patients regain strength, health and happiness...
Acupuncture, which is the insertion of fine needles into specific points of the body to achieve therapy and homeostasis, has been practiced in China for thousands of years! Since the late 70’s, the study and practice of acupuncture, both for humans and animals, has gained greater understanding and acceptance world-wide. The American Veterinary Medical Association has called acupuncture an integral part of veterinary medicine. Additionally, the World Health Organization and the National Institutes of Health have officially recognized acupuncture as an effective treatment for several diseases.
