Guest guest Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 This was a little confusing to me. Are you using a different method of injecting horses now or have you stopped injecting horses and just using the hypodermic needle for point stimulation? Thanks, Chris In a message dated 6/2/2004 9:56:17 AM Eastern Daylight Time, writes: I used this method in horses for several years, with very good results. However, if one treats 30-90 cases/week, and injects 4-8 points/case, one will inject 240-360 >10,000 points/year. Sooner or later, one will encounter iatrogenic local infection +/- cellulitis. I had a few bad abscessations in injected horses. I quit that method some years ago, and use hypodermic needles (20-gauge, 0.5 to 3-inch needles) as my standard method in horses now. I never injected acupoints in dogs. I use human AP needles (1-3- inch, 30-gauge as my standard method in dogs. Best regards, Quote
