Complementary Therapy
In some cases, complementary treatments can help support healing and improve comfort alongside traditional veterinary care.
At Sanderson Vet we offer therapies such as stem cell treatment, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy and acupuncture. These can be particularly helpful for patients with joint problems, injuries or chronic pain, and may be recommended as part of an individual treatment plan.
