A Texel ram is treated with acupuncture while friends look on...

A Texel ram is treated for secondary muscular lumbar pain, gluteal pain and stifle pain after injury and cruciate rupture. The photo above shows needles in trigger points along the inner bladder line, over GB30 and a needle in ST36; there is also one in BL54/40 out of sight. The wool was parted and the skin visualised to be clinically clean before inserting 40 x 0.25mm Seirin needles to a depth of between 20 to 25mm.
