It’s not often I get kitty patients, especially one with super cool eyes. Lily is receiving acupuncture for presumed feline hyperesthesia syndrome. When I met her she was still having occasional skin rolling episodes, but by her 3rd treatment mom reported she hasn’t witnessed a single one!

No better way to wake up than to a message from this meatball’s mom this morning saying that he walked on his own this morning! Briggs has been working so hard to regain independence following his back surgery for a ruptured disk that was 70% compressive back in January. Keep up the good work buddy! Love you 💜

Chewy receiving acupuncture and PEMF for ongoing pain that was not localizing to anywhere specific. After a couple visits to his primary and ER vets we decided to do some acupuncture, LASER and PEMF to all of the areas that showed even mild discomfort. We did acupuncture 2 times, spaced 3 days apart, and the morning after our 2nd visit Chewy vomited up a sizable piece of fabric that had been sitting in the stomach for what appeared to be an extended amount of time and has been feeling much better since.

Johnny is no spring chicken, but since we started treatment (acupuncture and LASER), he sure acts like one 🐣

Feel Good Friday: this beautiful girl presented to me about 10 weeks after the start of facial nerve paralysis for acupuncture. Not only can she now blink (no more eye drops!) her anxiety has also improved on walks!!

How do you ask do I get some dogs to sit still long enough for acupuncture? Lickimat + peanut butter.
But, why is there 2 mats? Perks of being the housemate of a dog getting acupuncture.

Veterinarians are required to accrue continuing education hours. Today I scheduled an hour between appointments to further my education to better help my patients.

This poor girl recovered from a cervical disc extrusion winter last year and recovered and just recently suffered from a cervical FCE (spinal stroke). So proud of her determination to improve!

I’m really enjoying the “headshots” of all my patients. More importantly, I enjoy the happiness they bring to their owners 💜

Fun fact about acupuncture
Not only does it trigger the release of endogenous (made by your body) opioids, but it also signals the release of the feel good neurotransmitters, dopamine and serotonin.
Dexie loves life and is always excited for a visitor. After about 3 minutes of the needles being in she settles down and just sits and enjoys the rest of the treatment. Thank you dopamine and serotonin!

Jett was too handsome not to take what I call “a professional doggy headshot” of. This handsome boy loves his massage for compensatory myofascial restrictions and the treats that come along with our appointments.

The #1 question I get when I tell people I do acupuncture for pets is some variation of: “and they let you do that??” Always in amazement.
There is actually a scientific reason for the reason why they relax. Acupuncture triggers a release of endorphins aka “feel-good” chemicals.
But don’t just take my word for it. Chloe here is your typical Boston, VERY enthusiastic about life. Right before her treatment she was jumping up on me giving me tons of kisses. About 3 minutes after the first needle went in she laid down and relaxed. There she stayed for the remainder of her treatment 🥰

My buddy Briggs has had a long journey. We have been working hard since early February to get to where we are today. When I first met Briggs he was urinary incontinent and unable to maintain a stand unassisted and dragged his hind legs wherever he went. Love you buddy and am so proud of your progress and determination to improve 🩷 #acupuncturefordogs #veterinaryacupuncture #lasertherapy #veterinaryrehabilitation
When I first met Enzo after not one but two surgeries for patellar luxation he was mostly walking in a handstand hovering the back legs. The first part of the video was after I think one session, but he continued to hover the left hind in a flexed position. Fast forward to now … LOOK AT HIM go!!! So proud of you buddy 🩷 #caninerehab #vetmed #veterinaryrehabilitation #patellarluxation
I met this sweet girl the beginning of December, 1 month after having surgery on her back for a ruptured disc that left her paralyzed with no deep pain. At that time she was unable to stand, let alone walk. Fast forward to our 4th visit over 6 weeks and look at her go! Needless to say I was shocked when she got up on her own and greeted me happily at the door. Keep up the good work Daisy! #veterinaryacupucture #acupunctureforpets #lasertherapy #veterinaryrehab

I met Oscar about 6 weeks ago after a bout of IVDD that left him immobile in his hindlimbs. Being an older gentleman with underlying conditions surgery wasn’t on the table. That’s when acupuncture and LASER came in. After 4 weekly sessions and some basic exercises Oscar decided it was time to be a walking man again 💕 #ivdd #veterinarymedicine #acupuncturefordogs #curacore #lasertherapy #multiradiance #vetmed
**Watch the video all the way through for an amazing Paisley pupdate!!** Neurological conditions can take seemingly ever to improve. I have known Paisley since April, about 4 months after she was found dragging herself in a church parking lot, and just today has she really started placing her right hindlimb and functionally using it! I nearly cried when I received the video. Just a week ago after a long break between visits due to illnesses she had reverted to frequently dragging both legs. And today, just WOW!
We have some adjustments to make on Paisley’s cart she got through the rescue, but I am so darn proud of her!! We have come a long way since I first met her. She was able to gait well on the left hind and it warmed my heart at the end when she adjusts that leg to a normal standing position! What I didn’t get on video was her inside the house pushing up into a squatted stand with ZERO assistance!! Keep up the good work Paisley! #veterinaryrehabilitation #vetrehab #ccrp #acupuncture #lasertherapy #veterinarymedicine
Shiner was an amazing patient today and rocked his first acupuncture treatment! His owner snapped this video after all his needles were in place to share with friends :)
Oliver is a 12.5 year old Dachshund that is as sweet as can be. I met Oliver in December of last year for mobility issues due to disc issues and arthritis that was compounded by long-term prednisone use for his back issues. Unrelated to the disc issues, he is also blind due to SARDS. This video reiterates that sometimes in order to see how far you’ve come you have to take a step back and look at where you started. Acupuncture, LASER and tPEMF therapy have given Oliver a new lease on life. He is much more mobile and engaged in daily activities. So happy for you Oliver!! ❤️
Standing unassisted on 3 legs for the first time in many months!
Today I received a video that brought me to tears. This young girl was found in January of this year pulling herself through a church parking lot, unable to use her back legs and extremely malnourished. It turns out Paisley had a spinal cord infection and inflammation and deterioration of some of her vertebrae. I met Paisley the beginning of April and have been working with her on Fridays. This is a video of Paisley standing in a crouched position bearing weight on her left rear limb, something she hasn't been able to do since before she was found, 4.5 months ago! So proud of you Paisley!!
Chip's pUPdate
Dedication and Perseverence are recipes for success 🙌
!!!FEEL GOOD CASE ALERT!!!
I had the pleasure of meeting Bella last summer more than a month after her surgery for a ruptured thoracic disc. At this time she was unable to stand unassisted or ambulate without significant assistance. Her owners were very worried about her quality of life, the possibility of any kind of recovery given the duration that she was down, and if we needed to fit her for a cart. I asked for some time and patience. We did therapeutic exercises, acupuncture and LASER therapy weekly to start. Improvements were seen in the first couple weeks. Fast forward 5.5 months later and here we are and Bella is loving life!
Abaco slaying the trot!
So proud of how far this little lady has come! 2.5 months post-op for a cervical disc!
Chip Update!
So thankful when clients send me videos of their dog's progress between visits!! This video absolutely made my night. Fabulous job buddy! Keep up the good work ♡
Before and after Acupuncture and LASER treatment ♡
I had the pleasure of meeting this sweet recently boy today. Chip is a 9 month old chihuahua mix that was dealt a tough hand at birth. In addition to some ongoing conservatively managed forelimb orthopedic problems, in mid November he underwent an FHO of the right hip along with surgical correction of a portosystemic shunt. Since surgery Chip has avoided using the right hindlimb as many dogs do. The first part of the video is from 2 days ago, but is how he presented this morning. After his exam I performed LASER and acupuncture to promote healing and address some of the pain he's experiencing. The second part of the video is immediately after treatment! I was amazed with how well he responded. He continued to consistently place the leg down even after removing the hair coil that acted as a counterstimilus for the remainder of our visit. At that point I was too busy cheering Chip on to take more video! Looking forward to sharing more videos of this angel and his progress ♡
Where We Started and How it's Going!
When I first met Abaco in late October she still had moderate ataxia with frequent tripping when ambulating and falling when turning following her herniated cervical disc that required surgery. Now her gait is nearing normal at a walk!!
Abaco 1 month later!
It's hard to get this aggressive lover to slow down enough to get video, but alas her kryptonite is a frozen peanut butter Kong. Here is Abaco working the obstacle course at our last appointment! Her strength and proprioception (knowing where her feet are in time and space) have greatly improved with weekly rehab and acupuncture. Abaco initially presented following surgery for a ruptured cervical disc in October. So proud of her progress and thankful for her dedicated owners. ❤
