Pain Management - Vet in Tubac | Caring Ways Veterinary Services

A Higher Standard of Pain Management

Because that's what they deserve.

Modern Medicine. Because their life is precious.

Our pets are unable to verbally communicate with us when they are in pain. However, there are signs to look for such as certain movements, body changes and specific behaviors that can be telltale signs that our pets are in pain. Dr. Hilden can discuss what signs to lookout for as well as treat acute and chronic pain with medication, acupuncture and lifestyle changes.

Supplements

There are hundreds of nutraceutical supplements to aid in a pain management protocol. Allow our team to discuss with you the different formulations and options that are proven safe and effective for your pet.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a procedure involving inserting slim, sterile needles into specific points of the body that may be experiencing pain. This process helps to release hormones and neurotransmitters to a specific area, which can remove toxins and bring oxygen to the area via increased blood flow, helping to reduce pain and discomfort. Dr. Hilden is credentialed in veterinary acupuncture.

Oral Prescription Medications

There are several different pain control medications. Our team will help you understand what Dr. Hilden has prescribed and also what side effects to be aware of and what long term care your pet will need to continue these medications.
