Integrative Medicine
Veterinary Integrative Medicine is a holistic approach to animal healthcare that combines conventional veterinary medicine with complementary and alternative therapies. It emphasizes treating the whole animal – body, mind, and spirit – to achieve optimal health and wellness.
Conventional veterinary medicine forms the foundation of treatment in Veterinary Integrative Medicine, providing diagnostics, pharmaceuticals, surgery, and other standard therapies. However, it also incorporates a range of complementary therapies such as acupuncture, chiropractic care, herbal medicine, nutritional therapy, physical therapy, and massage.
Overall, Veterinary Integrative Medicine seeks to integrate the best of both conventional and alternative therapies to provide the most effective and holistic care for animals, promoting health and wellness across all aspects of their lives.
