Earth Medicine Veterinary Acupuncture & Herbs

Dr. Sarah Meintel is a licensed veterinarian certified in Veterinary Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine I am a holistic veterinarian.
(19)

I own and operate my small one woman run clinic here in Talent called Earth Medicine Veterinary Acupuncture- born in 2015. The space where all the healing happens is a peaceful cabin in the trees. I fly under the radar easing most veterinary anxious animals. I have so much gratitude for being able to offer acupuncture and formulate custom herbal medicines for our little companions. Everyday I am

amazed at their resilience and ability to connect with acupuncture and herbs from an innate body level. My cup is full- I am in my element when I am able to help support these beautiful magical babies and their humans. My career roots began in Emergency Medicine which gave birth to a heart level yearning to learn more about natural and less damaging ways to support animals. At the core of my work and at the end of the day, those elder animals who I get to help care for whose quality of life exceed our expectations keep my heart smiling every single day. My practice scope is exclusive to:

Acupuncture - in clinic treatments. Western Herbs - formulating custom herbal tinctures for individual needs at appropriate therapeutic doses. Telemedicine- phone consultations for nutrition and second opinions around treating diseases through a holistic approach. Below is a list of the most common disease that I treat with Acupuncture and Herbs:

Osteoarthritis
Inflammatory bowel disease
ACL knee tears
Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD)
Lameness and other soft tissue injuries
Liver disease
Kidney disease
Paralysis- partial and full

What to expect:

Acupuncture is not a "one shot wonder". Acupuncture requires several treatments over the course of a few weeks in order to reach a level of pain control and healing that will persists after the accumulation process.

Acupuncture is typically performed 1-2 times/week for 4-6 weeks. Treatments are then tapered to the frequency necessary to maintain an animal's improvement. Most patients receive monthly or every 6 week treatments after the initial building period. This also depends upon what disease is being treated. From time to time, a “rescue” treatment is needed if a flare-up of pain or undesirable symptoms from disease occurs between treatments.

Improvement is typically seen in this 4-6 week time frame, if it is not, then it is usually a case where further diagnostics are needed to more accurately pin-point where the problem is or it may be that the pain/dysfunction is so long standing (chronic) that more time is needed in order to interrupt the perpetual pain cycle.
