100% Natural Liver and Kidney Detox and Cancer Support in Cats
Alternative or integrative therapies for pets have recently seen a huge resurgence due to their powerful healing ability with minimal side effects. Today we begin a once a month series in our NHV blogs, where we will explore alternative integrative therapies for pets, from acupuncture to aromatherapy to massage and magnetic therapy for treating illnesses in pets. In this week’s blog, we focus on acupuncture for pets —exploring how it can help your pet as well as the different methods of acupuncture, and its uses.
Acupuncture is beneficial for many pet health conditions including:
Acupuncture has been around for about 4000 years and has been used in Asian and Indian cultures for centuries. In traditional veterinary acupuncture, the acupuncturist places tiny needles into the various “acupuncture points” (the area where nerve bundles and blood vessels come together) with the goal of allowing your pet’s body to heal itself.
There are also a variety of different acupuncture methods that can be used. The method used will depend on your pet, the illness being treated, and advice from your veterinary practitioner. Other non-traditional veterinary acupuncture treatments include:
Laser therapy: In Laser therapy, acupuncture points are stimulated using laser energy. Low-intensity or cold lasers are used and are great for patients that don’t tolerate needle insertion.
Aquapuncture: In aquapuncture, small amounts of fluid (usually homeopathic, diluted vitamin B12, or electrolyte solutions) are injected at the acupuncture points for a more prolonged effect.
Electroacupuncture: In this form of acupuncture, small amounts of non-uncomfortable electrical current are given to the body between needles inserted into the acupuncture points. Electroacupuncture is great for spasming muscles or when there has been nerve damage to the body.
Moxibustion: This method involves burning healing herbs on or above the acupuncture points. Heat can be very helpful to senior pets, or pets suffering from stiff muscles. However, care must be taken to not burn the patient.
Acupressure: This method involves applying pressure to the acupuncture points with the fingers instead of needles. Acupressure is a great technique that pet owners can learn from their veterinary practitioners to provide their pets with further relief from discomfort and inflammation after treatment.
Prior to treatment, you should examine your pet for any areas of the skin which are infected or inflamed, and point these out to your practitioner.
Acupuncture should not be uncomfortable, and most pets will begin to relax once treatment is underway.
Ideally, at-home treatment is preferred to help your pet avoid unnecessary stress. Acupuncture should not be uncomfortable, and most pets will begin to relax once treatment is underway. However, some pets may need to be sedated for treatment. If sedation is not required for your pet, we recommend helping keep your pet calm with either NHV Matricalm or NHV Lesstress. NHV Matricalm or NHV Lesstress should ideally begin about 1-2 weeks prior to the appointments. Continue with the supplement for the duration of the treatments. Rescue Remedy is great to help calm your pet during acupuncture treatments.
Although side effects are rare, the infection can occur, so check your pet and report back to your practitioner if you notice anything unusual. In some pets, clinical signs may increase for a few days before they begin to improve. Although this is not unusual and maybe a reflection of the body trying to heal itself, do report any concerns you have to your veterinary practitioner.
To help the body in its healing and to help flush out toxins, which may be released during treatment, we recommend NHV Milk Thistle for liver support. Use NHV Milk Thistle for the duration of the treatments and continue with the supplement for an additional 2 months to make sure the body is supported.

The liver filters anything that your hamster, bunny or hedgehog may eat. If your pet gets sick, their liver may be underfunctioning and have a tough time eliminating toxins.

NHV Milk Thistle is a natural liver support that may help the body remove metabolic wastes, may help to improve liver function and may help support the kidneys as well.
The liver is an organ with many important functions. Its many responsibilities include filtering toxins out of the blood, releasing bile for effective digestion and more. Because the liver is so vital to the health of all pocket pets, Milk Thistle is especially beneficial for pets fighting off serious illnesses like cancer or fatty liver disease. It contains the active compound silymarin, which may help to detoxify the liver and encourages cell regeneration. Studies have shown that Milk Thistle may also help support kidney function.
Tumors are fairly common for many pocket pets, like cases of hamster liver cancer or guinea pig liver failure. Milk Thistle contains the active compound silymarin which has been used for thousands of years for its many beneficial properties. If your pet gets cancer, they will most likely be prescribed powerful cancer medications which can damage the kidneys and damage the liver. So in terms of cancer support, milk thistle is extremely beneficial to help offset the negative effects of medications and support liver function due to its rich concentration of free radical scavengers.
