Treating Animals With Acupuncture | National Geographic


turned in there yeah
people may not immediately put
acupuncture with veterinary medicine
however acupuncture from a veterinary
standpoint has probably been almost
practice as long as that for humans
this forces came out of a field where
it’s been raining and there’s mud out
there manure out to its ankles it’s
going to go back out there after we
treat it so we’re probably not going to
use sometimes addition of acupuncture
helps we need to do a better job and
sometimes it’s the only thing that gets
us over the hump get that any therapy as
far as things that we treat most often
are the things that respond on those so
musculoskeletal problems that come with
pain nerve damage and that’s because
that’s a lot of the things that
acupuncture is good for we’re looking
better on the straightaway Thank You
punch your simulates the body to heal
itself pretty much it in a nutshell
those veterinarians that are skeptical
they’re doing it in a sincere way they
want to do what’s best for their
patients
and they don’t want to recommend
anything willy nilly keep drinking
yeah far as the placebo effect in
animals that’s not possible what is
possible is a placebo effect on the
owners because the owners feel that just
because they’re paying for it and having
something done it must surely be having
a positive effect so one of the
responsibilities is centenarian
acupuncture’s is to filter that part out
and actually look at our patients see
what’s better and then ask good place to
camp ill some it makes you more
comfortable we do know that when needles
are placed those needles are stimulating
the neurovascular bundle you’re getting
a release of endorphins and Kathleen’s
histamine release and a lot of things
that we know from a physiologic
standpoint are involved with decreasing
pain decreasing inflammation I’m having
some trouble in the day whether you can
explain it from a Western medicine
standpoint or Eastern medicine
standpoint if you’re getting results
then that tells you the evidence that
you need to know yes you think a brain
tumor and you immediately think death
and I was like well what do we do I mean
how do we treat this knee goes well
there’s only really one method of
treatment because Sophie is so young and
that’s chemotherapy
