Frequently Asked Questions

Will my pet feel pain during acupuncture?

The needles used in treatment are hair thin and most pets have minimal reaction.  Occasionally if needling a particularly deficient or active point, an animal may express discomfort, but it typically is brief.  If a particular needle placement is persistently bothersome to your pet, it will be removed.
