Acupuncture for excessive licking after trauma

Dear all,

I was wondering what your experience is in cases of stereotypes such as excessive licking in an area of previous trauma on a fore leg. I cannot elicit any pain and the dog is not lame. I have performed one treatment/week for 4 weeks but I have seen that in cases of acral lick granuloma (which might be similar to what this dog is experiencing, I believe) treatment regimes of once a day for 4-5 days has good results.

Thanks for your time,

Aurora Zoff
