Holistic Veterinary Care
Holistic veterinary care encompasses a variety of approaches that far exceed traditional or conventional veterinary
medicine
Holistic veterinarians look at factors such as your dog's behavior, medical and dietary history, hygiene, and
your relationship with your dog to prescribe a healthy lifestyle.
Holistic medicine is soothing, gentle, and less invasive. It focuses on your dog's well being
and stress reduction, emphasizing love, understanding and respect.
In essence it combines the art of wellness, complemented with the skills
of a trained veterinarian, to create treatment protocols incorporating a wide range of healing therapies to maintain OR
restore good health.
If your dog is healthy, a holistic vet will focus on factors that will keep him
wholistically healthy and balanced initially focusing on diet, behavior, hygiene and a healthy
stress free environment.
If your dog is sick a holistic vet will want to search for underlying causation as the first step to restore Fido to
a state of wellness that will endure and not just be a temporary “fix”.
How is this different from conventional
veterinary care?
Traditional vets will frequently look at symptoms and treat a specific condition or disease without examining the
factors we discussed above which may be the cause of the illness.
Without addressing underlying causes, without restoring balance within your dogs body you may well be providing only
temporary solutions to problems that can re manifest themselves in more serious conditions.
And for the healthy Fido, a holistic veterinary may help provide the foundation for a long, healthy and well
balanced life.
