Integrated Medicine for Pets:
HOMOEOPATHY We use homoeopathy
extensively in much of our work, aiming to treat the whole animal, not just the
specific condition. The homoeopath makes a detailed examination of all the
physical, emotional and mental symptoms of the patient and selects a remedy
that most closely matches those symptoms. Homoeopathy is based on the Law of
Similars, which states that any substance which can cause symptoms to appear in
a healthy person or animal, can restore to health an individual showing similar
symptoms, when they appear as a deviation from normal for that individual.
Plants and herbs have been used in the treatment of
human and animal sickness and injury for many thousands of years, in almost
every culture of the world. The art and science of phytotherapy (herbal medicine) has
undergone a resurgence and is now an integral part of the rising interest in
natural medicine.
OSTEOPATHY
Problems in the framework of the body also disturb the circulation, the nerves and can affect any aspect of health. Animals are exposed to physical injury, illness or emotional trauma in the same ways as people.

ACUPUNCTURE: has been an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for over 3000 years. Stimulation of one or a number of acupuncture points with either needles, pressure or a laser is used to influence the meridian system of the body. In TCM terms this can be used to correct disharmony and to affect the Qi or energy patterns of the body.
