Slide The Process Acupuncture is well-tolerated by most pets. In fact, many animals become very relaxed during and after their acupuncture treatment. For most conditions, we recommend an initial treatment schedule of once weekly for 4-6 weeks. The frequency of treatments can then be reduced significantly for condition maintenance. Conditions that may benefit from acupuncture include musculoskeletal pain/arthritis pain, neurologic conditions such as intervertebral disc disease and nerve paralysis, animals receiving chemotherapy, epilepsy, non-healing wounds, chronic renal failure, chronic vomiting, diarrhea or constipation, and allergies.
