After earning her DVM degree at Kansas State University, Dr. Kielyn Scott moved to Raleigh, North Carolina for an emergency internship and emergency and critical care residency. After a few years in practice, Dr. Scott decided to pursue further education in Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine to try to find other ways to help her patients. This led to a curiosity about rehabilitation and certification. Dr. Scott is currently an assistant professor of integrative medicine and rehabilitation at Louisiana State University, where she enjoys working with a variety of species and challenging the way her students think.
In this two-part series, we will discuss how many painful dogs and cats are managed prior to a referral to an integrative practice. From there, we will talk about how to manage pain from an integrative perspective. We will cover traditional Chinese veterinary medicine, supplements, herbals, and medications. Attendees will learn basic tuina massage techniques that they will be able to incorporate into their own practice.
