Herbal Medicine & Acupuncture in Austin, Texas
ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture stimulates the body’s own pain relieving and anti-inflammatory response. It relaxes muscles, helping to relieve both local and generalized pain. It also improves blood flow and oxygenation, and even helps remove metabolic toxins. Unlike medications, acupuncture doesn’t put your pet’s internal organs at risk of adverse side effects. If your pet needs medications or supplements, feel at ease knowing acupuncture won’t interfere with them or create adverse effects.
Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) is available at both our Paz East and Paz South locations. There are many benefits of acupuncture, and we can help you decide if it’s right for your pet.
HERBALS
Have you ever wondered where drugs come from in the first place? Most pharmaceuticals were developed based on “natural” treatments already in place (and in some cases, around for thousands of years!). If an herbal approach is likely to be effective and reduce the risk of potential side-effects, we will work to help you identify the best time to initiate this form of therapy. As with any “drug” (defined as a “medicine” or other substance which has a physiologic effect when ingested or otherwise introduced into the body) you must always understand the risks and side effects, although they are generally minimal with herbals.
