What Is Herbal Holistic Medicine For Pets?
Just as doctors do for humans, veterinarians may prescribe the use of herbal remedies for pets. To do so, however, your practitioner must be a licensed veterinarian or working under the direct supervision of a licensed veterinarian. Dispensing herbals as a therapy requires specialized knowledge and training — both skills that our veterinary team possesses. Herbal remedies are derived from specific parts of plants and herbs, and it’s important to note that not all are safe for your pet’s consumption. This is why it’s vital to accept holistic herbal care only from veterinarians who are licensed to practice it, such as our doctors.
How Can Holistic Herbal Care Help My Exotic Pet?
It’s not always necessary to prescribe traditional drugs such as antibiotics or pain relievers for pets. In many instances, gentle herbal remedies possess the same healing properties without unwanted side effects such as drowsiness, agitation, hyperactivity, or nausea. Herbals may be used to treat a variety of modern-day illnesses in your exotic pet, including:
- Arthritis Pain
- Abnormal liver function
- Abnormal Kidney Function
- Inflammation
Herbal holistic remedies can bring relief and healing to all manner of pets, including exotics. When administered by our specially trained and experienced veterinary team, this type of holistic treatment can transform your pet from one that’s uncomfortable or ill to one that’s happy and pain-free.
