This revision reflects major updating, expansion of hot topics, and coverage of trends, current areas of research interest, and controversies in veterinary acupuncture. The book begins with the history and concepts of acupuncture and continues with the anatomic and neurophysiologic basis of acupuncture, research on acupuncture, practical techniques, instrumentation, and point selection. Part two covers acupuncture in small animals, including a canine atlas, avian acupuncture, and chapters that focus on disorders grouped by body systems. Part three is devoted to acupuncture in large animals. It begins with three different equine atlases, followed by equine acupuncture treatment according to body system, and concludes with acupuncture in cattle and a porcine acupuncture atlas.

Holistic Integrative Veterinary Healthcare
is an innovative approach that unites the best of holistic, natural techniques with the best of conventional veterinary medicine to offer a new comprehensive form of compassionate animal health care services. Dr. Schoen is one of the pioneers in veterinary acupuncture and natural therapies, developing and practicing them since 1981. He has been acknowledged by his peers as one of the 15 most influential veterinarians in North America as well as worldwide for introducing the concept of an integrative approach to veterinary medicine, bridging the gap between conventional and alternative medicine. With over 40 years of clinical experience, teaching and research, he has developed his own unique integrative approach to animal health care.
Currently Dr. Schoen is continuing to develop his own expansive approaches to the concept of One Health and transpersonal mind/body medicine, offering workshops, retreats and veterinary consultations. He is creating a new broader vision of what animal healing is in relation to our own personal, transpersonal as well as global health and healing.
He continues to offer workshops and retreats worldwide either online and when invited worldwide. He also offers mind/body medicine, compassion fatigue and stress management support and consultations for veterinarians and animal health care professionals.
Dr. Schoen limits his one on one insights to his current clients and occasionally a limited number of new or old clients time permitting. His primary focus now is on developing new approaches to help create a healthier, happier global enivronment for the benefit of all beings.
