Hello! I’m Shayne Zimmerman. I’ve been a veterinarian in North Carolina for over 25 years. I’ve been practicing acupuncture and TCVM (Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine) since 2011. I’m happy to announce that I am partnering with Heal Housecall to offer mobile veterinary services in Raleigh, Cary, Holly Springs, Apex, Fuquay Varina, and surrounding areas.

My practice is specialized and centers on holistic modalities exclusively. The services that I offer for dogs and cats of all ages include:
• Routine wellness evaluation according to TCVM principles; with food, supplement and preventative care recommendations for puppies, kittens and adult pets.
• Chronic care evaluation and consulting as needed to complement or replace traditional medical management.
• TCVM food as medicine
• Chinese and Western herbal medicine
• Acupuncture
• Soft tissue work and trigger point release
• Energy medicine (Reiki, Qi Gong, facilitated heart to heart coherence meditation)
• Ozone therapy
• Mistletoe therapy
*I continue to learn and gather information and will add modalities and help coordinate other alternative treatment protocols in cooperation with you and other holistic practitioners as appropriate.

Chronic conditions that can benefit from these approaches include but are not limited to: environmental allergies or food sensitivities, other chronic skin or GI conditions, recurrent ear infections, osteoarthritis or other causes of musculoskeletal pain, anxiety or other behavioral challenges, geriatric cognitive changes, hormonal or metabolic imbalances, chronic organ systems insufficiencies, seizures, cancer or autoimmune diseases. The above therapies are offered based on subjective physical and energetic assessment modalities and for the most part do not depend on conventional Western disease diagnoses.

I want to help support the most balanced and evidence-based approach to your pets’ care. I am happy to consult and coordinate with any general and specialty practice veterinarians with whom you are cooperating to provide the most excellent and comprehensive care for your loved ones! At any time, I am happy to review current medical records and offer guidance for moving forward.
