On this site you can find information on our organisation, the board, our goal, upcoming courses and releated organisations.
We have members amongst veterinarians in the scandinavian countries. Most of the members are certified acupuncturists, and we consider continued education as a fundamental issue in practicing veterinary acupuncture
NoVAS - the Nordic Veterinary Acupuncture Society is part of IVAS - the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society, which is a worldwide advocate in veterinary medicine to create and maintain optimal health in all animals.Legislation for veterinarian treatment of animals vary in the different Nordic countries, and any treatment given by veterinary acupuncturist must be in accordance with national legislation.Recommended courses and education, information on treatment, ideas and opinions might therefore not represent all members, the board or the editor of NoVAS. The TCM - Traditional Chinese Medicine - diagnoses in the case reports however, are mandatory, although many practitioners use a more neuro-endochrinological approach of veterinary acupuncture.
