Acupuncture Services

Over the past year Dr. Sifford has spent thousands of hours learning the ancient art of acupuncture at the Chi Institute in Reddick, FL.
She has successfully completed the basic acupuncture courses and has used her new found skills to help relieve the pain of many pets.

Acupuncture has been practiced in both animals and humans for thousands of years in China.
The purpose of acupuncture is to insert tiny needles under the skin to stimulate different points in the body. Acupuncture releases beta-endorphins which often relieves pain. In addition, stimulation of acupuncture points allows energy in the body to flow freely which can make a pet feel better.

Most cats and dogs enjoy their acupuncture treatment.
We are confident that acupuncture combined with other drugs and therapies can help alleviate your pet’s pain and illnesses. If you don’t believe us, please ask to see our pictures of cats and dogs enjoying acupuncture

We frequently combine
acupuncture therapy with animal chiropractic adjustments and cold laser therapy to give your pet a “total spa day” here at our clinic.

Acupuncture is safe, virtually pain free,
and can make a real improvement in the way your pet feels and moves. We are excited to be one of the few clinics in Southeast Minnesota to have the training and knowledge to offer this service to your pet.
