Welcome to our
Website!
Veterinary Acupuncture & Complementary Therapy, Inc. provides your pets
in Greater Orlando, Central Florida with alternative and complementary therapies that
combine up-to-date medical knowledge with natural treatment methods. Our
goal is to create and deliver a treatment plan that best meets your
pet’s medical needs, and your expectations. We are committed to you and
your pet for excellent, compassionate service.
We work alongside your conventional veterinarians by
providing alternative medical care which compliments their veterinary
practice, when in the best interest of your companion animals.
With expertise drawn from years of advanced training,
our veterinarians practice Traditional Chinese Medicine and use
acupuncture, Chinese and Western herbal therapy, nutrition, veterinary
chiropractic, Tui-Na manipulative therapy, massage, homeopathy,
and homotoxicology as treatment therapies. These
therapies may be highly beneficial for many medical and surgical
conditions where a conventional approach either fails to provide relief
or produces unacceptable side effects.
Our patients come in with a variety of problems. Some
examples are back disk disease, arthritis, hip dysplasia, cancer, liver
disease, kidney disease, heart failure, and auto-immune diseases.

Acupuncture:
Acupuncture is a method of encouraging the body to promote natural
healing. Originating in China over 3,000 years ago, traditional
acupuncture is the oldest continually practiced medical system in the
world. The fundamental principles of acupuncture are to treat the
patient as an integrated whole and to identify and remedy the root cause
of disease. It can be used to relieve pain or to improve the function
of various organ systems in an animal's body.
