Re: Homeopathy
Question: Since Hahnemann’s time, we have learned much about the human body and how it works. We have
also learned much about the interaction between mind/body/spirit. Doesn’t it seem realistic that we are able
to know the cause of many conditions? And isn’t it true that we often look for the cause, not in germs, but in
the life conditions of the person (non-material conditions) that have created the affecting cause?

Your experiences with animals and homeopathy should negate the view that homeopathic remedies are placebo!

Re: Homeopathy
I agree.
Especially when you see the fedback from a cat given the wrong remedy for them:
Some will be polite and just walk away with a disgusted expression.
Some will fight you to get away from it (whereas a rtight remedy will be accepted or even requested by some)
And one of my cats not shy to express her opinion used to literslly sneer at me for the idiotic remedy selection and walk off with her nose and tail in the air.
Homeopaths can not get away with poor selections in animal remedy matching; it is humbling to be pulled up short by a cat after years of study and work:-)
I can genuinely say all those cats helped me to be a better homeopath over the years.
As a vet tech, (I used to assist in surgery), you may find Arnica your best friend. Where I worked we did have six surgeries a day, Mon-Sat, so almost 2000 a year.
After starting routine use (routine is not a usual word in homeopathy, but relevant here) of Arnica before surgery, the death rate during/after surgery went from low to zero - to the vet's amazement, as many cases he did not expect to live long enough to get under the knife, survived very lengthy surgeries. His surgery was always excellent but 12 hour repairs after coyote damage, or repairs ot geriatric animals, etc did not always survive the shock. So as I tried to itroduce homeopathy to that surgery, arnica soon became not just tolerated, but protocol, for surgery cases.
Arnica in a single dose of suitable potency (higher like 1M for trauma and severe surgery, 200C before ANY anethesia,) prevented the various forms of shock that can happen in surgery for any number of causes.
Some will tell you that arnica will increase bleeding in surgery. It is a sign that they do not understand how remedies work.
Arnica stops excess bleeding where it occurs, and gets rid of clots where that occurs. Remedies are not like rat poison (warfarin) and do not just work in a single direction as chemicals do. It is important to think of remedies as energy medicine not chemical medicine. Bear that in mind and you will do well.
Namaste,
Irene

Re: Homeopathy
Welcome Diane!
I'm happy to see that you joined the group and that you posted as a vet tech. One of my biggest complaints as a pet owner is that there are not enough well trained veterinarian and lay pet homeopaths in this country. The system in the UK and Canada is, in my opinion, the best of the two worlds. As I'm sure you know, the AVMA American style is not friendly to homeopathy and raw feeding!
My dogs' vet knows that I treat with homeopathy and she knows I feed raw. She tells me how she would approach. I say yes or no! We work together for the health and longevity of my dogs.
Here are some links you might find interesting:
http://www.veterinary-homeopathy.co.uk/homeopathy.html
http://www.alternativevet.org/
Please tell us about your doctor's practice and what type of services you provide. Obviously you love animals and take your work seriously or you wouldn't be here hoping to express yourself and discuss this topic with this esteemed group of professionals. There are a few of us here who are pet owners are here to learn more about how we can take care of our pets with homeopathy.
What do you know about homeopathy, and is the service currently provided at the clinic where you work?
I hope to share my dog's story with you. There are a few pet owners reading and participating in this group because we have found homeopathy to be an alternative that absolutely works for all of the 21st century issues that dogs (and cats... ummm... Irene, Sharon and Gilda!) face.
I use both veterinary services (when necessary for testing and diagnosis) and their treatment is homeopathic. LOL... I stand my ground if there is any decision to be made in an area where we have disagreement! I also push aside my ego if what she says makes sense.
To date I have only had one "unfriendly" encounter with a vet who thought she knew more about my dog than I did! I knew that wasn't the case becasue she fussed and fumed about raw feeding and how dangerous it was. I paid the bill and didn't go back! That was simple, huh? Raw feeding is becoming more mainstream and better accepted than it was 5 years ago when we started.
Let us hear from you again. We have a lot to talk about.
Vicki

Re: Homeopathy
Thanks, Soroush, and you are absolutely right. Just as with young children, animals are the perfect subjects to determine how effective or not a remedy/potentcy might be, correctly chosen.
Fortunately, my Veterinarian uses it frequently, along with homotoxicology, supplements, Chinese Medicinal Herbs, Acupuncture, Manipulation, etc. Prior to getting into the holistic fields in the 90's, for the previous 25 years he was a traditional vet, which affords him experience and knowledge few other vets have.
He is the only full-time holistic in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and boy oh boy, am I happy and lucky to be working with him.
Thanks again, Soroush,
Diana

Re: Homeopathy
Yes, Soroush, thank you.
One and all, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Diana, I have just recently joined your group and am excited, beyond words, to be able to be amongst those from whom I hope to learn more, homeopathically.
I am merely a Veterinary Technician, but lucky enough to work for the only full-time Holistic Veterinarian in Colorado Springs, Colorado, who has been practicing Holistic Medicine since the 90's. During his previous 25 years, he was a Traditional Veterinarian, so the combination of the two works and studies makes him a most sought after Vet.
Including homeopathy, he also uses homotoxicology, acupuncture, aquapuncture, electro-puncture, chiropractic, Eastern, Western and Ayurvedic Herbs & treatments, supplements, applied kinesiology and many other things. He is also the premier vet one seeks out, in all the western states, for the diagnosis & treatment of lameness in equines, in particular, but in smaller, domestic animals as well.
I am self-educated, and in a limited way, in terms of homeopathy, and am always desperately happy to learn more, so I greatly look forward to learning tons of things from so many of you. My only wish is to have found your site earlier. My only request of all of you is to kindly correct me should you ever find me in error, if you would.
I have a question. Was it from this site someone posted recently about rabies, lyssin and a dog exhibiting aggressive tendencies post vaccination?

Re: Homeopathy
Thank you for the warm welcome, Vicki, and the links you shared.
'Tis true the UK & Canada has a bit of a lead in the holistic outlook/approach, but as you know, change for the better does not always come as quickly as desired.
The AVMA may be behind the eight ball, in this regard, but the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association (AHVMA) can be a helpful informational resource in the U.S. as to what Vet does what things in what state(s).
Here is a link to my Vet, Dr. Jim Friedly's, practices; The Natural Healthcare Center for Animals and Countryside Veterinary Clinic. Hopefully you will find enough information throughout his site to give you a feel. You should also be able to manuver through it to see services offered, etc.:

I am not trained in homeopathy, but merely slightly self-taught, and I am not a Veterinarian, so I can neither diagnose, prognose nor prescribe, in any way, shape or form, so my presence here will likely be geared more towards learning than sharing
I have, on a few occasions, homeopathically self-treated or treated pets belonging to friends, who understand and believe in it, but that is as far as I would allow myself to go with the little knowledge/experience I have. I know there are many who believe no harm can be done with homeopathic remedies, but personally, I am not so sure that is always true, so I would rather err on the side of caution and leave the big stuff in the hands of the professionals.
While I might be willing to share what little I suspect, know or have experienced, personally, it would come with the caveat that all must know I am not a trained practitioner in the art, and therefore take NO responsibility for what others choose to do with anything I say. I am not likely to ever suggest a remedy or some other such treatment, as I cannot legally, ethically do so, and am all too painfully aware how dangerous a little knowledge can be. Opinions and questions, however, I am always willing to share and ask.
As for whether homeopathy will work for all 21st century issues with dogs, cats, humans, etc., I am not so sure I can agree, for I believe it possible that not all creatures respond to homeopathy. I do not yet know why this might be the case, but my gut tells me is might be possible. If anyone else can speak to this suspicion of mine, I would love to hear from them.
For your added pleasure, I have attached a picture of the both of us standing in front of some of his homeopathic and other remedies.
Health and happiness to all,
Diana
