Holistic Treatment Methods in Domestic Animals
2024
Aydin, H.
Holistic veterinary medicine is a form of healing that considers the whole patient (body, mind and spirit) in an approach to achieving optimum health and eliminating the root causes of disease. The holistic approach is gentle, minimally invasive and includes the patient's emotions and well-being. Holistic thinking focuses on love, empathy and respect. While symptomatic treatment is common in conventional medicine, alternative medicine looks at the living being as a whole. Instead of treating symptoms, it aims to find the system that is malfunctioning and to activate and treat the system. After a thorough examination and appropriate testing, a holistic veterinarian will select the best combination of conventional and alternative or complementary therapies for each patient. This review provides information on many therapies commonly used by holistic veterinarians.
