Veterinarian for acupuncture, this form of China has made me appreciate even more. In fact, they are the perfect animal to an acupuncturist in almost everyway. Of course, the main reason is that they respond very well to acupuncture. I used acupuncture to help treat Greyhound with arthritis, seizures,
allergies, gastrointestinal diseases, behavioural problems, liver and kidney diseases, and problems of vision and hearing. Their responses to treatment are always rewarding. Owners are happy, the dogs feel better, and I reaffirm what I like to do.
But at a more basic level, that adapt perfectly to acupuncture technique and for me as a doctor also. First, Greyhound racing, like many of my patients do not appear to meet fierce treatments. In summary, seems to enjoy it. Canines are that as its amenities. Along with the cosy sofa and a refreshing strip-of-the piernas-sprint, and they are pleased to massage sensation of treatment and they are often invigoratedby clockwise. As an athlete out of season, appreciate the efforts of a physical therapist.
Secondly, the acupuncture points are located in anatomical reference points: bones, muscle, tendon source, borders and so on. As you can imagine, these marks are virtually labelled with neon in a Greyhound. short hair, elegant lines of the body, seriously defined muscles and bones and visible outlines that the Greyhound a perfect model for the neophyte acupuncturist.
When I was trying to learn more than 390 acupuncture points, I was grateful for the greyhounds soft owned by one of the assistants of Chair. They were standing patiently while my fingers found the corners and cracks which is me escaping from people with overweight, long hair also used animals. Once a point is repeatedly in a Greyhound, became much easier to be sure of finding points in other animals.
I want too easy not now, when I'm trying to a Greyhound is only to find the points, but also to identify the medical problems with a Chinese examination. The Greyhound treatment response evaluation can be more accurate because the results of analysis of progress and muscle measurements are more clearly visible. With the effectiveness of these treatments, I am able to talk freely with the owners. I am happy to say that I have developed a close friendship with many of my greyhound owners.
Thirdly, the greyhounds are extremely sensitive to many medications. Its sensitivity to drugs and reactions are well known in the veterinary world. When a Greyhound, it is gratifying to have the training to treat these sensitive dogs without disturbing side effects. In my years of use of acupuncture, I found to be safe and effective in the Greyhound.
