The philosophy of Holistic Medicine is 2400 years old, in that the body must be treated as a whole instead of treating just parts of the body. In Holistic Veterinary Medicine, we are not just treating a symptom or a disease. We are seeking the underlying causes of disease and treating your pet's whole body on an emotional, physical, mental and spiritual level to obtain the deepest level of healing possible, with the least invasive, non-toxic and natural methods.
Holistic Veterinary Medicine views the animal as an integrated whole being and considers all the factors that contribute to health and well-being:
w environment w nutrition w lifestyle and, w mental happiness.
Holistic Veterinary Medicine acknowledges the vital force (Chi) of life which is in every cell of our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual being.
Holistic Veterinary Medicine uses a variety of treatments including but not limited to:
w homeopathy wacupuncture wnutrition wvitamin-mineral supplementation wherbs and wchiropractic

Homeopathy is a system of medical treatments developed in Germany 200 years ago by Dr. Samuel Christian Hahnemann. Homeopathy is based on the principal of "Similia Similibus Curentur" like cures like. Medicines which can cause the symptoms of a disease in a healthy person can be used to treat the disease in someone who is ill.
Homeopathic remedies are subtle energy medicines which contain the energetic frequency of the substance from which they have been prepared and are capable of stimulating the healing process.
What about nutrition?
Proper nutrition is a significant factor in maintaining health and treating disease. It can boost the body's natural resistance to disease. A bio-metabolic analysis can show just where there is a need for support and nutritional recommendations are made accordingly
