Veterinary Acupuncture Wirral

Veterinary Acupuncture

Acupuncture has successfully been used to treat animals and humans for more than 2000 years. It is an incredibly safe therapy if practised by a professionally trained veterinary practitioner and is non-stressful for both animal and owner. It is the treatment of choice for a quarter of the world’s population for many ailments. It is a complementary and holistic treatment, so it works effectively alongside the existing treatment plan prescribed by your veterinary surgeon. I will coordinate with other professionals involved in your pet’s health and well-being such as hydrotherapists and physiotherapists. This collaboration enhances the effects of each therapy and helps us reach our shared goal of a content, long lived companion.

Testimonials

Phoebe has been treating my horse Flump with acupuncture for several years now. Flump is quite a stressy mare but its amazing to see her visibly relax during her acupuncture sessions. Phoebe is so knowledgeable in identifying areas of tightness and the treatment really seems to loosen up Flump's back. She is almost 24 years of age and I'm convinced its doing her good and helping to keep her going. And she really seems to enjoy them. Well done Phoebe!

Phoebe treated our dog Dixie, who has recurring problems with her pancreas and bowels. Phoebe made Dixie feel at ease and she was relaxed throughout the treatment. Since the treatment course has completed, Dixie has had a real upturn in her condition, with significantly fewer outbreaks lasting only short periods. The symptoms are much less severe, to the point that we no longer have to treat with medications. I would recommend using Phoebe to anyone seeking an alternative answer to a recurrent or acute issue with your pet.

One of my horses was quite a bad head shaker but since having regular acupuncture with Phoebe, he was able to go back out competing British Dressage. Both of my horses love their acupuncture sessions and regularly fall asleep during the treatment.

I had to take Doris, my 11 year old French Bulldog, to the vets in February 2022 with a sore eye and mentioned to Phoebe (who I didn’t realise at the time was able to administer acupuncture) I thought Doris was starting with CDRM; that is when Phoebe asked had I ever considered acupuncture for her as there was so little medicinally that can be done for the disease. I was only too willing for Doris to have acupuncture on a regular basis as I know how well it works for CDRM, due to a previous experience of a Boxer...

I was only too willing for Doris to have acupuncture on a regular basis as I know how well it works for CDRM, due to a previous experience of a Boxer with the same condition. Now in January 2023 Doris is still mobile and has a good quality of life and enjoying two daily walks. I can highly recommend this treatment for this otherwise untreatable disease.

Ted's a gypsy cob and a very laid back character, though sometimes he can hide issues just because he is so laid back. As an equine vet, Phoebe is very experienced in finding any sore areas and the acupuncture really really seems to work for him. He often falls asleep during the sessions.... he really loves it

My two ex racing greyhounds had several sessions of Bowen therapy with Phoebe, for different reasons and expected outcomes. It was interesting that the dog who accepted it immediately and clearly enjoyed it, had the less dramatic response, although she clearly did benefit. The second dog, who was wary and unsure, had a noticeable response and a change in his gait and posture. His movement is more fluid as a result. Phoebe’s gentle and non intrusive approach was perfect for these dogs and I would not hesitate in continuing more treatment in the future.
