We want Your pet to get the care They deserve
There has to be Another way…
An Integrative Approach
Dr. Janelle Canty, DVM, CVA
I started noticing that several of my clients were desiring less medication, and a more natural approach to providing care for their pets. Out of this demand, and also my professional desire to provide these services birthed Pure Paws Holistic. I will come to your pet, where they are most comfortable, and use modalities that have proven to alleviate, soothe, and treat. Every pet is different, and the best modalities for treatment will be determined within the first few visits. It is my sincere pleasure to help your pet live its best life, and restore balance.
FAQs
-
Different pets have different sensitivities just like human beings. Although, we do use needles to perform dry acupuncture these needles tend to be very thin, and many pets do not have much of a reaction. Some reaction is normal, and is referred to as the De Qi response (mild/quick twitch of the skin)

Dry acupuncture at first is used on a weekly basis for 4 weeks, and then eventually can be used less as your pet responds to the therapy, and modalities used. It usually takes around 4 weeks to see a difference, or response from your pet.
-
Normally after an acupuncture treatment, a pet will want to take a nap which is very normal. A lot of times pets will get so relaxed they will take a short nap during their acupuncture treatment.
-
Acupuncture can absolutely be used along with any medications your pet is currently taking. Depending on the medical condition that is being treating we may or may not use specific acupuncture points.
