The Uses For Holistic Healing For Animals

By Henry Cole


Holistically designed medical and therapeutic programs have been in use for years for humans. People who suffer from a host of ailments like addiction to chronic pain often benefit from treatment that treats the whole person rather than a summary of symptoms or specific body parts. This form of treatment is now carrying over to other wellness industries including veterinarian practices. When you have a pet who suffers from a specific health ailment, you may want to seek out holistic healing for animals.

In medical terms, pets are not that different from humans. They experience the same levels of pain as people do. Scientists now know as well that cats, dogs, and other creatures also have the same cognitive processes and emotions as humans. They feel fear, sadness, anxiety, and other emotions in the same way as their owners, which is why more vets approach treatments holistically rather than symptomatically.

Vets who offer this approach to medical care recognize the fact that these creatures are more than just a collection of symptoms or ailing body parts. They strive to address not only physiological issues but also challenges to the creature's mental and emotional health. This total and whole treatment is designed to help the pet recover faster and possibly never again suffer from the same ailment in the future.

For instance, when a dog suffers from a condition like arthritis, it not only experiences excruciating pain whenever it attempts to move. It also may suffer psychologically when it tries to walk or move around like normal. The anxiety stems from the fear of the pain that comes with the condition. Along with suffering from physiological pain, the dog also has to cope with feelings of anxiety, which can make its health worse.

One of these programs will address the arthritic symptoms while also treating anxiety and fear associated with the illness. The provider may use a soothing tone of voice while massaging the dog's limbs and muscles. The combination of the soothing voice along with the sensation of the massage could put the dog's mind at ease and also ease the distress that is caused directly by the illness from which it suffers.

The identical approach could be utilized to transform a cat that has been neglected or abused. The cat may be hostile and aggressive toward humans and not capable of being handled. At the time of its treatment, it may be unsuitable for adoption into a stable and loving home. The therapy will help the cat learn better behaviors that will allow it to trust humans again and also adapt to living in a home again.

To achieve this, the caregivers may use a variety of techniques designed to gain the creature's trust. They might utilize play time as a method of getting the cat to relax and engage with its atmosphere. While playing with the cat, they might use a calming tone of voice that puts the cat at ease. Within a matter of days, it could learn to trust humans again and get past its trauma.

Humans are not the only ones who benefit from holistic care anymore. Animals like cats and dogs now can take advantage of it when they suffer from physical, mental, and emotional traumas. Pet owners now have the option of seeking out this level of care for their animal companions.
