Not just for humans: All information about pet acupuncture

Neurological problem The emergency vet treatment of animals by acupuncture has been around for 3,000 years but has recently gained more popularity. Is it painful and what are the side effects? All the details inside.

 

 

Animal Care by Acupuncture Life is one of the five streams of animal medicine in Chinese medicine. Emergency clinics have been using this method for years, but while acupuncture has been used mainly for animals and horses, acupuncture is now used mainly to treat pets.

According to Chinese medicine, the human body and animals have main energy channels called meridians, through which the energy of qi passes. The energy of qi is life energy and in a healthy state it flows freely through these energy channels, but when there is shortage or excess energy, diseases and other problems can arise. Acupuncture comes to solve the problem of energy flow to restore the situation to normal.

 

How does an emergency vet perform acupuncture?

 

 

Acupuncture is performed by using sterile, thin disposable needles. Acupuncture is done according to the Chinese medicine theory, and the only difference between human and animal care lies in the various energy centers and in the various parts of the bodywhere they gently pierce the needles

 

How long does treatment take?

 

 

The length of treatment varies depending on the severity of the condition of the animal. While a simple problem can be eliminated in individual sessions compared to a more acute problem that could take several dozen treatments.

What causes acupuncture treatment?

For animals acupuncture can help in one or more of the following situations:

- Musculoskeletal problems such as arthritis or vertebrae problems

Neural damage

- Breathing problems such as asthma in cats

- Skin problems such as dermatitis or allergy

- Digestive problems such as diarrhea

Does it hurt animals?

 

 

 

If the needles are in their designated location, they do not cause pain. However, acupuncture treatment includes symptoms such as tingling, cramping or numbness that occur in humans, but animals may be alarmed. Usually during the treatment animals are in a very relaxed state and some even doze off.

 

Are there side effects?

 

 

Acupuncture side effects are rare but can occur. Sometimes the animal's medical condition worsens to 48 hours after treatment and other times the animals stay sleepy or older than normal for 24 hours after treatment. These effects are positive and are an indication that acupuncture is effective.
