Veterinary acupuncture is adapted from Traditional Chinese Medicine, which has been applied to humans and animals
for thousands of years.
It has been developed and refined, since those early days, but the basic principles still hold good. It is a holistic
therapy, when used properly, taking into account environment, diet and lifestyle, when treating a sick patient.
Acupuncture uses needles (or some other form of stimulation) inserted into specific 'acupuncture points', sometimes far
removed from the perceived site of trouble, to help regulate and balance the energy flow through the 'meridians' or 'channels'.
It is suitable for use in all species, young or old, pregnant or lactating. Dogs, cats, horses, ponies, donkeys,
goats, cattle, pigs, sheep and poultry are commonly treated. Cage pets, birds and wild species, so frequently difficult to
treat with conventional medicine, also respond well.
