Pain Management and Acupuncture
Even though all of our hospice consultations include a thorough pain management plan, our pain management consultations differ from the perspective that there is not a terminal diagnosis.
This type of appointment is best for pets with chronic arthritis or pain who are otherwise healthy.
"You gave me my pet back"
There is absolutely nothing more rewarding than to see a pet return back to his or her "old self."
The power of proper pain management is truly something to behold, yet it is one of the most overlooked areas of senior care.
Many families attribute the changes that their pet experiences to "simply getting old and slowing down." When in fact, pets are generally slowing down because they hurt.
There is so much we can do for pets who are experiencing age-related pain, dramatically increasing their quality of life, comfort and happiness.
A pain management consultation involves a complete medical, physical and environmental assessment specifically focused on increasing comfort and quality of life through decreasing pain.
An individualized and advanced plan to your pet's type of pain is developed, including medications and helpful therapies such as acupuncture.
