Pet Integrative Medicine
What Is Integrative Medicine?
Integrative veterinary care combines the best of Western diagnostics and treatments with time-tested Eastern therapies. By balancing both, we provide pets with whole-body care that supports healing, comfort, and long-term wellness.
This may include acupuncture for pain relief, herbs for systemic support, chiropractic adjustments for mobility, or rehabilitation for recovery.

Pet Acupuncture
Pet acupuncture is a gentle, drug-free therapy that uses fine needles to stimulate specific points on your pet’s body. This centuries-old technique has been adapted for modern veterinary use and is proven to help pets with pain management, chronic conditions, and recovery support.
Benefits of pet acupuncture include:
Pet Chinese Herbs
Pet herbal medicine uses carefully selected Chinese herbs to strengthen your pet’s natural healing ability. These formulas are often used in combination with Western treatments to address chronic illnesses or systemic imbalances.
Common uses for pet Chinese herbs include:
- Supporting kidney, liver, or heart function
- Boosting immune health for pets with chronic disease
- Improving energy levels and vitality
- Managing skin conditions such as allergies or dermatitis
- Providing systemic support for aging pets
Each herbal plan is tailored to your pet’s specific needs by our veterinarians trained in integrative medicine.
Pet Chiropractic Care

Pets who may benefit from chiropractic care include:
- Dogs and cats with mobility issues or stiffness
- Pets recovering from orthopedic surgery
