    Default Acupuncture

    Has anyone had acupuncture done on their pets? Did it work? How was the experience and why was it done?
    Macy has been on antibitics since she was very, very little for her sinus abnormaility. Saline seems to work pretty good but I am looking at other safe options. Your input is appreciated [img]/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif[/img]

    I haven't yet, but I have been looking into it. A lady I know, her elderly dalmation was going to the chiro and getting acupunture. He ended up with some degeneration issue which left him paralyzed. I can't remember what it is called.

    Anyways, after going to both, you would never know he had a problem. He is 13 now.

    I think there is a chiropactor that does it across the river, no one here that does. Call around.

    I work for a Chiropractor and she is willing to do it. I just wanted to see if anyone had it done for their pet. Macy is very tiny so we will have to see how it goes.

    Make sure she knows what she's doing in regards to animals. There are additional courses for animal chiropractic and animal acupunture.

    the same thing as in people, i'd assume. there's all different reasons. people say it works for tons of things
