International Acupuncture Symposium – 29th May 2027 -OVERTOWN MANOR WILTSHIRE
The day
We can promise you a dynamic, interactive, thought-provoking morning – you will honestly never quite look at things in quite the same way again.
After a long and delicious lunch, Sam will continue what we are dubbing “The Lundeberg Papers”. No Swedish accent, but the essence of the magic that Thomas has woven together out of the veterinary research and from his own research and experience: a framework for treating canine OA; feline pain and feline analgesia; the importance of touch; fear of the veterinary clinic and more. The brain picture and the big picture.
Venue: The beautiful Overtown Manor, Wroughton, Wiltshire
PLACES ARE LIMITED TO JUST 15 SO PLEASE BOOK QUICKLY TO SECURE YOUR PLACE!

The day
We can promise you a dynamic, interactive, thought-provoking morning – you will honestly never quite look at things in quite the same way again.
After one of Nancy's long and delicious lunches, Sam will continue what we are dubbing “The Lundeberg Papers”. No Swedish accent, but the essence of the magic that Thomas has woven together out of the veterinary research and from his own research and experience: a framework for treating canine OA; feline pain and feline analgesia; the importance of touch; fear of the veterinary clinic and more. The brain picture and the big picture.

NEW format for the Chronic Pain Management course
LIVE TEACHING, LIVE CASES, LIVELY DISCUSSION
If online courses are not for you, if the idea of immersing yourself in a subject in lovely surroundings, sustained by wonderful home cooking appeals to you; if being away from the distractions of home life is the only way for you to learn……
The FOUR-DAY live-in-person Chronic Pain Management Course is BACK!
This course is a mixture of didactic teaching, practical and discussion to develop a fully integrated, compassionate and pragmatic approach to treating chronic pain in the dog and cat.
It takes place at the wonderful Overtown Manor, where Nancy Lawson cooks locally sourced, delicious lunches, served in her farmhouse kitchen. Staying at Overtown makes the course a relaxing residential experience, but there are also many Air BnBs, pubs with rooms, small hotels in the local area. Contact Nancy directly for rooms on Nancy@overtownmanor.co.uk
Course contents:
Day One: Chronic pain - what is it? Why is it different from acute pain and why does that matter? Why do we have to work so much harder controlling chronic pain in non-human animals?

Day Three: Live case assessment; approaching the treatment of chronic pain, starting with analgesia
Day Four: Treatment of chronic pain - beyond medical analgesia.
