Neuro-functional Acupuncture

Neurofunctional acupuncture is a modern, evidence-based approach that combines traditional acupuncture techniques with contemporary neuroscience to treat a variety of neurological and musculoskeletal conditions in animals. By targeting specific nerve pathways and muscle groups, this therapy helps restore normal function, reduce pain, and enhance mobility. Often used in cases of nerve injuries, paralysis, arthritis, and performance issues, neurofunctional acupuncture promotes healing by stimulating the nervous system and improving communication between the brain and body. Safe, minimally invasive, and well-tolerated by most animals, this therapy offers a natural path to improved comfort and mobility.

Clinical Benefits

  • Pain Relief

    • Alleviates both acute and chronic pain by stimulating the release of endorphins and other natural painkillers.

  • Improved Mobility

    • Helps increase range of motion and joint flexibility, especially beneficial for dogs with arthritis or musculoskeletal issues.

  • Reduce Inflammation

    • Decreases swelling and promotes natural anti-inflammatory responses in the body.

  • Neurological Support

    • Aids in recovery from nerve injuries, intervertebral disc disease (IVDD), and paralysis by promoting nerve regeneration and function.

  • Enhanced Healing and Tissue Repair

    • Increases blood flow and stimulates cellular activity, speeding up recovery from injuries and surgeries.

  • Stress and Anxiety Reduction

    • Calms the nervous system, helping your animal manage anxiety, stress, and behavioural issues.

  • Support for Chronic Conditions

    • Provides ongoing relief for long-term issues such as hip dysplasia, degenerative myelopathy, and chronic pain syndromes.
