Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a gentle, holistic therapy that promotes healing and pain relief by stimulating the body’s natural processes. This time-tested technique involves placing fine, painless needles at strategic points to enhance circulation, reduce inflammation, and encourage the release of endorphins—your pet’s natural pain relievers.

How Does Acupuncture Work?

Acupuncture is a holistic therapy that stimulates the body’s natural healing process by targeting specific energy points with fine, painless needles. These needles activate circulation, release endorphins (natural pain relievers), and promote anti-inflammatory responses. By improving blood flow and reducing tension, acupuncture helps restore balance in the body, providing relief for pain, injuries, and chronic conditions.

Benefits of Acupuncture for Pets

Natural Pain Relief – Helps manage arthritis, joint pain, and injuries without medication.

Reduces Inflammation – Enhances circulation to decrease swelling and promote healing.

Supports Mobility & Comfort – Ideal for pets experiencing stiffness, muscle soreness, or difficulty moving.

Accelerates Healing & Recovery – Aids in post-surgical recovery and injury rehabilitation.

Non-Invasive & Safe – A stress-free, side-effect-free therapy that complements traditional veterinary care.

What to Expect During an Acupuncture Visit

At Aliso Beach Animal Clinic, every acupuncture session is tailored to your pet’s specific needs. During the visit:

  • Our veterinarian will perform a thorough evaluation of your pet’s condition.
  • Fine, sterile needles will be placed in specific areas to stimulate healing.
  • Your pet may feel relaxed or even sleepy during the session.
  • Treatment sessions typically last between 15-30 minutes, depending on your pet’s needs.

 

Many pets show signs of improvement after just a few sessions, with increased comfort and mobility over time.
