Acupuncture as a Natural Healing Treatment for Animals

Originating from traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture has become a well-known alternative, natural healing method in our circles, widely practiced not only on humans but also on animals. In principle, any animal that can be touched and examined can undergo acupuncture. The most common use of acupuncture is on horses and dogs, but birds, rodents, and cats often tolerate acupuncture treatments well. For proper assessment before treatment, suitable examination equipment is useful.

How Does Acupuncture Work?

During acupuncture, specialized acupuncture needles are inserted into the skin of the patient at precisely predetermined points. Our practical acupuncture models can assist with this. By inserting needles into the so-called meridians, which according to traditional Chinese belief are channels through which life energy circulates, the body’s self-healing mechanisms are activated, and discomforts are alleviated or even healed. Complementary teaching tools such as teaching posters and anatomical veterinary models can help visualize these structures. Proper handling also requires consistent disinfection.

Combination with ""Western Healing Methods""

As with all natural and traditional treatments, acupuncture does not guarantee relief or healing of ailments. However, acupuncture works well as a complementary therapy to methods of Western medicine, which is why it is becoming increasingly popular among both humans and animals. Helpful practice accessories can support smooth workflows when combining therapeutic approaches.
