Acupuncture & Chinese Herbal Therapy
-
Acupuncture is an ancient medical practice that has thousands of years of carefully recorded history. It is surprisingly well-tolerated in most pets, and very useful for improving energy and comfort in our aging animal companions.
Many of our clients report things like “He has more bounce in his step,” or “She brought me a toy for the first time in ages,” indicating the pet just feels better overall.
Many conditions can be improved with acupuncture treatments, such as osteoarthritis, degenerative joint disease, neck or back pain, gastrointestinal disorders, weakness, incontinence issues, and seizures to name a few.
Dr. Chandler received her certification in Veterinary Acupuncture from the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society in 2004 and has made acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Therapy part of her veterinary practice ever since.
