Pet Acupuncture
Our team at Cobblestone Veterinary Care offers expert pet acupuncture in Tempe, AZ, from our certified lead veterinarian as a safe, natural therapy to support your pet’s health and well-being.
What Is Pet Acupuncture?
Pet acupuncture is a non-invasive treatment that involves gently inserting very fine, sterile needles into specific points on your pet’s body. These points correspond to areas that influence circulation, nerve activity, and the release of natural pain-relieving chemicals such as endorphins.
This process helps restore balance to your pet’s energy pathways and promotes healing from within. Many pets relax during treatment—some even fall asleep! Acupuncture can be used alone or as part of an integrated care plan to support your pet’s overall wellness.
How Acupuncture Helps Pets
Chronic pain from arthritis or hip dysplasia.
Recovery from injury or surgery.
Neurological disorders, such as disc disease or nerve paralysis.
Digestive problems, nausea, or loss of appetite.
Allergies and skin irritation.
Stress and anxiety management.
Our veterinarians use acupuncture to complement traditional treatments, helping dogs and cats find relief from chronic pain, inflammation, anxiety, and mobility challenges—all within a calm, compassionate environment.
What to Expect During a Pet Acupuncture Session
Your pet’s first acupuncture appointment begins with a thorough examination and consultation. The veterinarian will review your pet’s medical history, assess their symptoms, and develop a customized treatment plan.
During the session, tiny needles are placed in targeted points, and most pets tolerate this very well—often showing signs of relaxation or calmness within minutes. Sessions typically last between 15 to 30 minutes, depending on your pet’s needs. Many owners notice improvement after just a few treatments, while chronic conditions may benefit from ongoing therapy.
