Find out what acupuncture can do for you and your pets
Dr Jane Hunter has had an unusual career treating both animals and people with acupuncture. Twelve years after qualifying as a vet from Glasgow University, and with a PhD in antibiotic resistance, opportunity took her to the other side of the world to New Zealand. There her eyes were opened to less conventional treatment that challenged some aspects of standard veterinary and medical practice.
Back in Scotland, Jane began treating dogs and cats in pain with acupuncture, and was then encouraged to treat their owners too! In this book she shares her twenty-one years of training and experience, along with stories of the many animals, owners and other human patients she has met along the way, and describes how transformative acupuncture can be – not just for pain, but for a range of conditions, from common skin complaints to loss of smell and taste.

Duncan Lawler quote:
“Definitely inspiring and great to read about real cases and the effect of acupuncture on real lives, rather than the constant cold emotionless numbers from trials and statistics.”
Duncan Lawler - Consultant physiotherapist and acupuncturist, Chair of British Medical Acupuncture Society (BMAS) Professional Services & author of Western Medical Acupuncture Protocols for Chronic Pain
Ann Hutchison quote:
“These real-life stories of Jane’s patients, both two-legged
and four-legged, are an absorbing, interesting and fun read for everyone. They are also educational and informative
for anyone in the veterinary and medical fields. Even with all
my years of experience using acupuncture to treat both
animals and humans, I was able to glean some new and
helpful tips from this book.”
