AcupunctureAcupuncture is the stimulation of specific points on the body with needles, cold laser, or pressure to produce a healing response. Each acupuncture point has specific actions when stimulated. This technique has been used in veterinary practice in China for thousands of years to treat many ailments. The Chinese also use acupuncture as preventative medicine. Acupuncture is used all around the world, either along or in conjunction with Western medicine, to treat a wide variety of conditions in every species of animal. Clinical research has been conducted showing positive results in the treatment of both animals and humans, and the use of acupuncture is increasing. Acupuncture will not cure every condition, but it can work very well when it is indicated.

Veterinary Spinal Manipulation TherapyVeterinary Spinal Manipulation Therapy (VSMT), also referred to as “animal chiropractic care” in some state practice acts, is an integrative health care therapy option that may help with symptoms associated
with dysfunction of the musculoskeletal and neurologic systems. VSMT is not limited to injured or unhealthy animals; any animal involved in sport may benefit as VSMT aids in supporting musculoskeletal and neurologic function. Gentle range of motion, traction and joint mobilization techniques and specific adjustments of areas of restriction or hypomobility may aid patients in restoring some joint motion, subsequent musculoskeletal movement, and neurologic stimulation. |
Herbal Medicine Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) therapies has its historical origins with Traditional Chinese Medicine, and dates back 4,000 years. Herbs today are prepared with the benefits of modern technology, but are still guided by this historical wisdom. In CHM practice, herbs are used to correct imbalance underlying a disease pattern and to promote the body's ability to heal itself. Each herb has a different effect on the body and can fall under a number of classifications such as warming, cooling, sour, or bitter and can affect a variety of organs, including the liver, lungs, or heart. Doctor Marley utilizes herbal formulas that are a combination of single-herb ingredients to treat a specific pattern of disease.
