Acupuncture Treatment

Acupuncture is one of the core treatments at the Copperfield Equine Therapy & Rehabilitation Centre.

Acupuncture treatment involves inserting sterile stainless steel needles into specific points using electro-current to stimulate the nerve function. It is commonly used to relieve musculoskeletal pain and treat a wide range of medical conditions.

Catherine Cooper, owner of the centre, trained extensively with the Acupuncture School Ireland as well as the Chi Institute TCVM in the U.S.A. and studied Equine Nutrition.

Catherine is certified in Veterinary Acupuncture and has spent the last 16 years working as an Equine Acupuncturist with an established reputation for successfully treating horses for a range of conditions all across Ireland.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Veterinary Herbal Medicine

Along with her qualifications in the acupuncture field, Catherine is also a certified herbalist, using natural medicine for many years with great success.

She has produced many of her own formulas that have proven extremely effective in the treatment of a great selection of patterns of disease.

Catherine will generally make a specific formula to suit individual needs as there are no ‘one size fits all’ solutions in this field.

Medicines are administered daily to each horse when necessary for optimal results.
