How Can Acupressure Help Your Dog?

Acupressure is an alternative medicine technique similar in principle to acupuncture. It is based on the concept of energy movement. In treatment, we apply physical pressure to acupuncture points to clear blockages in these meridians. Pressure may be applied by hand, by elbow, or with various devices. Some veterinary and medical studies have suggested that acupressure may be effective at helping manage pain, gastrointestinal distress, and tension, among other things.
