Veterinary acupuncture is a treatment that uses very small needles placed at specific points on the body to help reduce pain, improve mobility, support healing, and promote overall wellness. Many animals find treatments relaxing and tolerate them very well.

Acupuncture may be beneficial for arthritis, back and neck pain, mobility issues, neurologic conditions, recovery from injury or surgery, and many chronic health concerns. Treatment recommendations are tailored to each animal's individual needs.

Animal chiropractic care focuses on restoring proper joint motion and nervous system function. Gentle adjustments can help improve comfort, mobility, performance, and overall quality of life.

Yes. When performed by a licensed veterinarian trained in animal chiropractic, treatments are gentle, safe, and specifically adapted for your animal's size, species, and condition.

Integrative medicine combines conventional veterinary care with complementary therapies such as acupuncture, chiropractic care, rehabilitation, nutrition, and lifestyle recommendations. The goal is to support the whole animal and create a personalized treatment plan.

Physical therapy uses therapeutic exercises, stretches, balance work, and rehabilitation techniques to improve strength, mobility, recovery, and overall function. It is commonly used after injury, surgery, or for age-related mobility changes.

Initial appointments typically last 60 to 90 minutes and include a comprehensive evaluation and discussion of your animal's health history. Follow-up appointments are generally shorter depending on the treatment plan.

Every animal responds differently. Some patients experience improvement after one visit, while others benefit from a series of treatments. Dr. Burnett will discuss a recommended treatment schedule based on your animal's condition and goals.

In most cases, no referral is required. However, collaboration with your primary veterinarian is encouraged to ensure your animal receives the most comprehensive care possible.

Dr. Burnett works with horses, cats, dogs, livestock, and other animals depending on their individual needs. If you have questions about a specific species, please contact us directly.

Some animals show immediate improvement, while others experience gradual changes over several days. Mild soreness or temporary fatigue can occasionally occur as the body adjusts and begins the healing process.
