Veterinary acupuncture, like acupuncture in people, is a method of relieving the symptoms of a medical condition without the use of drugs. As in humans, needles are placed at specific points in the body to stimulate a healing effect such as calming muscle spasms, increasing blood circulation and facilitating the release of hormones. Acupuncture can be used to help manage pain from arthritis as well aid in the treatment of urinary, respiratory and dermatological disorders.
