A survey study on the use of veterinary acupuncture in the UK and Europe

The findings of this study suggest that the practice of veterinary acupuncture in the UK and Europe varies based on preferred approach and patient factors. Its use as complementary therapy for treatment of chronic pain seems to be common across different countries, acupuncture styles and qualifications of the participants. This variability may be the result of a lack of consensus about the standard of practice.

Abstract

The findings of this study suggest that the practice of veterinary acupuncture in the UK and Europe varies based on preferred approach and patient factors. Its use as complementary therapy for treatment of chronic pain seems to be common across different countries, acupuncture styles and qualifications of the participants. This variability may be the result of a lack of consensus about the standard of practice.
