The benefit of a naturopathic approach to animal health is just that, health! Animal naturopathy will assist your animal’s body in building, repairing, and maintaining health.
The highly skilled Animal Naturopath can provide critical information to clients (animal guardians) that they may never come across on their own or while working with an allopathic practitioner.
Homeostasis is a word often heard in animal naturopathy. It is the state of harmonious balance and rhythm among mind, body, spirit, and environment. While homeostasis naturally fluctuates, nature’s laws cannot be ignored without certain consequences; imbalance is guaranteed. This also dishonors the animal.
There are eight Laws of Health in animal naturopathy none of which are optional: Nutrition, Exercise, Water, Sunshine and supplements, Temperance, Air, Rest, and Trust. A handy acronym to remember them is NEWSTART. When you provide each element homeostasis returns to your animal, deep health is established, and there are no symptoms of illness.
The goal of an Animal Naturopath is to help the animal feel better without causing harm or uncomfortable side effects, rejecting the use of drugs and surgical intervention. They respect the expression of symptoms as the body’s attempt to heal and know that symptoms are not the disease or the cause of disease.
Animal Naturopaths have been trained in, and have the ability to determine the underlying cause of illness and to stimulate the body’s own healing ability. This is why animal naturopathy can be so effective where other systems fail.
