Natural Treatments for Dogs and Cats.

Where conventional medicine focuses on the disease or condition, and on drugs to reduce the symptoms, holistic healthcare looks at the whole animal and all the factors that can affect your pet’s health such as genetics, nutrition, family relationships, hygiene, and stress factors.

Natural pet supplements and herbal remedies for dogs and cats.

Herbal medicine is often utilised in chronic conditions and can sometimes be combined with conventional medicines prescribed by your veterinarian.

Where conventional medicine focuses on the disease or condition, and on drugs to reduce the symptoms, holistic healthcare looks at the whole animal and all the factors that can affect your pet’s health such as genetics, nutrition, family relationships, hygiene, and stress factors.

We work with veterinarians to combine conventional treatment with a complementary approach in order to provide the individual animal with the least toxic, least invasive, most nurturing, and least harmful path to healing.

Complimentary pet therapies.

Our complimentary pet therapies include Reconnective Healing, herbal remedies and natural supplements, advice on good nutrition, natural healthy diets for dogs and cats, Canine Myofunctional Massage Therapy, Photonic Therapy (pet acupuncture), dog behavioural therapy and a rehabilitation service in consultation with veterinarians.

The importance of pet nutrition.

Animal nutrition is about utilising good food to fight disease, and ensuring we are providing your pet with the best quality food for his/her ongoing good health. We stock a range of natural supplements, organic and natural diets, natural shampoos and flea treatments for your pets.

The first consultation with new clients is one hour and costs $110.
