Acupuncture
During an acupuncture session, Dr. Jester will first take a thorough history of your pet. She will then perform a very specific exam that is focused on the musculoskeletal system. Areas that are an issue (ie: joint recovering from surgery or an arthritic joint in the body) as well as places on the body that are reactive as determined during the exam, will be treated during the session. Dr. Jester frequently massages and/or stretches any areas that are tight to make needle insertion more comfortable for your companion and to give a synergistic effect to the sessions. The acupuncture treatments last approximately one hour and Dr. Jester frequently uses electrical stimulation for longer-acting effects as well as an increased pain relief (endorphin) response by the animal's body.
