ACUPRESSURE …
… is a form of manual pressure to specific points on the body, to help
create a therapeutic affect.
The following 6 Acupressure points in this guide can help you to relieve some of
the symptoms of Arthritis for your dog
You can stimulate the Acupressure points with the spring loaded Acupressure
device or use finger and thumb pressure. We recommend using the method that
your dog is most comfortable with.
We recommend stimulating the selected Acupressure points for a duration
of 3 to 5 minutes if possible. It might take your dog some time to get used to
Acupressure, so be patient and realistic. If your dog is unsure about the techniques
initially, you may need to start with a shorter duration.
