When your animal's organ systems do not function properly, acupuncture can help.

Acupuncture is based on balancing and correcting the flow of energy thereby allowing the body to heal itself. Acupuncture has been shown to assist the body in healing by affecting certain physiological changes.

• Stimulate nerves.
• Increase blood and oxygen supply.
• Relieve muscle spasms.
• Cause the release of hormones such as endorphins and cortisol.
• Increase immunity by increasing white blood cell count and antibody production.

Acupuncture is the stimulation of specific points in the body most often by a thin, flexible needle. This technique has been used in China for the thousands of years where it is often the treatment of choice.  In the United States, acupuncture is understood as a method of relieving pain but its value extends beyond pain relief.
