Cat and dog acupuncture involves inserting tiny, sterile needles into designated points on the body to stimulate the central nervous system and move the body’s energy, or QI. Blood circulation is enhanced, muscles are relaxed, and hormones (serotonin, dopamine, endorphins) are released, which then leads to pain relief. Acupuncture can also restore balance between organ systems for overall health.
Cat and dog acupuncture can treat many different conditions. Dogs, cats, and other animal species can benefit both internally and externally.
