What to expect

 

How often?

Typically the sessions will be spread out in 5-7 day intervals for the first 4-6 sessions. Once there is a good response to treatment the intervals lengthen and mainly in chronic conditions a 'maintenance program' is adapted which varies from animal to animal, also depending on the condition. The first visit normally takes longer, up to 60 minutes with taking a full history, examination, discussing aspects of the case and treating the pet. Needles stay in around 20 minutes but in very lively or extremely sensitive patients treatment duration has to be customized. Further consultations usually last about 30 minutes.

 

Your pet may be quite sleepy and possibly more sore on the day of the treatment and the day after; or the patient may feel a lot better and then be inclined to “overdo” it if you let him; an acupuncture needle may cause a little bleed.
