Homeopathic Medicine for Acute Care for Animals

What Is Homeopathic Medicine?

Homeopathy is a gentle, kind, ethical and moral proven system of perceiving the dysfunction in the body, prescribing a remedy to free the healing power of the Vital Force, and meticulous, experienced guidance until the curative response is appreciated and verified.  (See Pitcairn Institute: What is Homeopathy?)

Veterinary Homeopathy is Practiced by a Veterinarian Trained in Homeopathy

Homeopathic medicine is practiced by homeopathic physicians or veterinarians and uses tiny doses of specially prepared medicines that are prescribed to cure a patient thoroughly and gently.

Dr Truli is currently studying with Dr Richard Pitcairn in the Pitcairn Institute Master of Homeopathy 18 month Course of Study. This is currently the only veterinary Masterclass in the world.

The homeopathic physician or veterinarian–often called a homeopath–takes a thorough history and detailed account from you about your pet.

The Pet Parent is an Essential Partner for Homeopathic Treatment Success

Your observations are essential to understanding your pet’s healing journey. If you keep a diary or calendar, no detail is ridiculous!

The homeopath records not just symptoms of a current problem but also modalities- what makes the symptom worse or better? Concomitants – what happens right after or with the symptom but is mostly a different thing. And what has happened throughout your pet’s life before this illness?

Symptoms

the characteristic signs that there is a problem. Especially things that are different from the usual. For example, it is easy to call a cough a symptom because coughing often is not normal. But a behavior change, like a friendly pet becomes aloof- may also be a symptom.

Modalities

modifiers of the symptom or symptoms. For example, symptoms that happen at the same time each day. Symptoms that occur when certain things happen, like rain, or car AC in their face, etc. These details are essential to choosing an effective remedy.

Concomitants

these are abnormalities that occur with the main symptom. Like a sneeze fit that turns into a hacking cough. So the cough is a concomitant. Your experienced homeopath can help you tell which are new symptoms in their own right and which are following symptoms or concomitants. These can be super helpful in choosing an effective single homeopathic remedy.

Many of these details that seem intuitive to pet parents to share with their veterinarian have little or no application in medical care as taught by the AVMA-accredited colleges of veterinary medicine. Yet they are necessary details to arrive at an effective homeopathic prescription.

Homeopathic Symptoms You Can Share with Your Veterinary Homeopath

• what is the main dis-ease or symptom?
• time of day of symptoms
• whether being indoors or outdoors helps or hurts
• whether a cough starts when they are laying down or when they go to stand up
• whether a seizure is better with food
• whether retching follows a cough
• whether a painful area is better with massage or whether they hate being touched where it hurts
• and many, many, thousands more!

What Homeopathic Medicine Will My Pet be Given?

After careful analysis, your veterinary homeopath will recommend a homeopathic remedy. A dose will be one treatment. The homeopath will advise what remedy in what potency and when to report back in for the effects you noticed. Sometimes this is done right in the veterinary hospital or house call and the veterinarian can see the healing changes taking place. Most often, the remedy is shipped to you, chosen from your home apothecary or you may be able to purchase it at a local health food store.

Here’s an interesting fact: the homeopathic remedy does not heal your pet. THE REMEDY DOES NOT HEAL YOUR PET. What?!!

The Body’s Vital Force Does the Healing

The Vital Force of your pet’s body does the healing. For this reason, we do not prescribe homeopathic remedies to be repeatedly given on a certain schedule like pharmaceuticals. Instead, veterinary homeopaths will prescribe a remedy and then require you to check in at certain reporting tmes in order to interpret whether our pet is healing properly and fully.

A Note About “Homeopathic Products” or Remedies, Especially Multiple Remedy Combination Products

Classical homeopathic medicine uses a single remedy at a time. For best results and to really appreciate the healing power of the body’s Vital Force, a trained skilled homeopath can help you unlock the healing power of homeopathy. While there are precious few homeopaths in the world, and in the United States in particular, it is well worth the search for professional guidance if you would like your pet to benefit from this ethical, kind, gentle system of healing.
