Quinn, a little 10 week old puppy, is one of the most delightful characters I’ve had the pleasure of meeting! A lovely boy who has settled into his new home quickly and easily. However, Quinn’s owner contacted me for help with his serious motion sickness. Each time he travelled in a car he was extremely sick, with excessive drooling and was very miserable.

Quinn completed a course of just 3 acupuncture treatments. His owner reported a great improvement after just one treatment and further improvement after his subsequent treatments.

Quinn’s owner said: ‘I contacted Emma as I wanted to help my very car sick puppy as much as possible. Before treatment he would be sick very quickly, within 5-10 minutes. After three treatments fairly close together, he was able to go on a much longer journey, an hour plus, without being sick. I really feel that acupuncture had a huge impact on Quinn being able to cope with being in the car.’

Often, patients are sleepy during and after acupuncture treatment. All too much excitement for puppy Quinn
