Welcome
 |
We offer solutions
for your pet's good health using the latest conventional treatments,
which include surgery and modern diagnostic tools, along with
traditional, natural treatments from herbal remedies to acupuncture
to relieve stresses, benefiting both pets and owner. |
Alternative
Veterinary Medicine
Alternative veterinary medicine allows your pet the same options
that you have as a person in regards to caring for your health.
Alternative therapies can complement and enhance, or even
replace, conventional medicine. A practitioner of alternative
veterinary medicine should have credentials in both traditional
and alternative veterinary medicine, as it is believed that
alternative therapies are most effective and beneficial when
integrated with a complete understanding of the conventional
diagnosis. We specialize in acupuncture, herbal, and holistic
medicine for the health and well-being of your pet. |

Herbal
Veterinary Medicine
The use of specific herbs and plants for medicinal purposes
has been practiced for centuries all over the world. Herbs
have healing powers that are capable of balancing the emotional,
mental, and physical dimensions of your pet. In Traditional
Chinese Medicine (TCM), the flow of Qi (or energy) can be
nurtured by the use of certain herbs. Traditional Chinese
herbs - and herbs from around the world - are used in veterinary
herbal medicine. Herbs should only be prescribed for your
pet by a veterinarian who is familiar with all the aspects
of your pet's condition and who has been trained in herbal
medicine. Herbal medicine is effective in treating a variety
of ailments and diseases. A good example of this is the use
of herbs as a safe and natural way to calm a pet that fears
thunderstorms. |
Holistic Medicine
Holistic veterinary medicine views the wellness of your pet in terms
of its entirety. It takes into consideration the whole picture of
the patient - lifestyle, environment, diet, genetics, disease patterns,
the relationship of the pet with its people - and develops a treatment
protocol using a wide range of therapies. Treatment may include
surgery and drug therapy from conventional veterinary medicine along
with alternative techniques. The ultimate goal of holistic medicine
is the optimal health of your pet. The holistic approach to your
pet's nutrition can prevent and vastly improve such problems as
ear infections, urinary tract problems, allergies, and skin conditions.
