Conditions in pets which may be helped by acupuncture include back pain, arthritis, muscle & ligament sprains, incontinence, some forms of diarrhoea/constipation and some forms of skin disease.

Now that our pets are fortunately living much longer their risk of developing arthritis or other similar chronic conditions which cause them pain, is increasing.

Acupuncture is used for many different diseases and there are several approaches to this form of treatment, but, whichever the approach, pain management is one of its main targets.

Acupuncture has been in evidence for thousands of years and developed by cultures all around the world.

 It would seem that when any group of people live together and live long enough to develop muscle strain and chronic pain that comes with injury and degeneration, they find increasingly ingenious ways of alleviating their discomfort.

Nadia Mongelli, MRCVS, having completed the Association of British Veterinary Acupuncturists (ABVA) foundation course, is now able to offer acupuncture treatment for your pets at our surgery in Crowthorne.
