Holistic veterinary medicine differs from "conventional" veterinary medicine in that it takes a more natural and common sense approach to your pet's healthcare. Through proper nutrition, regular daily care, avoidance of toxins, and minimization of emotional stress, the body's own immune system becomes strengthened, enabling the body to heal itself and to ward off possible disease. Holistic medicine avoids the overuse or often misuse of many drugs, antibiotics, steroids, artificial chemicals, vaccinations, and other treatments. Instead it treats mostly with proper diet, natural whole-food and herbal dietary supplements, homeopathic treatments, and alternative "ages-old" treatments.
I'm a holistic practitioner for over twenty years and will give you a solid introduction to the basics of Holistic Healing currently used in veterinary medicine today. You will then get specifics on how you can use nutrition to start the healing process on your pets. I will also give an introduction to homeopathy, the treatment modality that I specialize in. There will be time set aside for answering your specific questions during the class.
Classes will be scheduled when I have 10 students interested.
