New Product: The Essential Guide to Natural Cancer Care for Pets

The Essential Guide To Natural Pet Care For Cats & Dogs: Cancer by Cal Orey

The Natural Pet Care series comprehensively covers gentle, natural treatments, including homeopathy, acupuncture, nutritional therapy and chiropractic for common pet diseases. Each book delves into the latest scientific research and veterinary clinical trials as well as actual cases in which pets have been cured by holistic medicine. Each book offers in-depth solutions such as vet-approved dietary changes, supplements, herbs and treatments. Also available in the series are books on Arthritis, Epilepsy and Hip Dysplasia. Each book lists it's sources of information and contact information for the holistic vets who contributed their expertise, knowledge and love of animals.

Well Beings recommends discussing all treatment options with a qualified integrative therapy veterinarian. This book should not be used in place of veterinary care, but rather as a tool to help you and your veterinarian come up with a comprehensive treatment plan for your companion based on his or her specific needs. No one therapy is a cure all and it is important to tailor treatments according to knowledge of your animals particular health needs. (An example is that many people think that boosting the immune system in general will be of great assistance, but that may not be the best course of action in every situation.)

Veterinarians Who Offer Phone Consultations:

Dr. Sondra St. Clair ND, DTCM: Completing her undergraduate studies in Biology and Botany, Dr. St. Clair pursued further education in biophysics and medicine. Her awareness of the power of natural healing was ignited and her passion for alternative medicine began. She opted for graduate studies in Chinese medicine in the US and in China. After years of formal training and clinical experience, in 1987 she opened a clinic for comprehensive natural health care. Her thirst for knowledge drove her to continue studying and learning new techniques and modalities to promote healing. Through extensive teachings in energetic medicine combined with her scientific understanding of the physics of the mind/body connection, she offers masterful insight into the healing process for her clients. Love for animals led her to develop a fully integrated therapeutic system especially for them. Integrative Therapy embraces the very best of available techniques in natural healing. Her knowledge of orthopedic manipulation, kinesiology, homeopathy, eastern and western herbal medicine and nutrition provides her patients with all the tools available to facilitate their recovery, maximize good health and maintain vitality through all phases of life. Dr. St. Clair can be reached via email: drsondra@toplinewellness or by phone at (760)730-3062.

A Message from Dr. St. Clair: During my 20 years in the practice of oriental medicine, I have found that alternative modalities coupled with conventional techniques bring unexpected positive results. People have benefited for thousands of years with these approaches and techniques. Animals in particular have an affinity for natural healing. I am continually awestruck by the profound results brought about using these natural, healthy and scientific methods. To read about some of the techniques employed by Dr. St. Clair click here.

Dr. Charles Loops, DVM: Dr. Loops practice is mainly by referral and 95% by telephone consultation. He has treated thousands of cases using the principles of classical homeopathy and he continues to find this system of gentle healing to be the most effective therapy that has ever existed. Sixty percent of his new cases have cancer and most of these several hundred companions each year survive longer and have a better quality of life than cancer patients treated with Western medicine or other modalities (see Supplements, Nutrients and Medications in Cancer Treatments for more information). The homeopathic approach is both very cost effective for guardians and gentle and natural for their companions. To Contact Dr. Loops: Telephone Consultations by Appointment: Hours: 9-4 (EST) Mon., Tues., Wed., & Fri. (closed Thursdays) Phone: 919-542-0442 Fax: 919-542-0535, 38 Waddell Hollow Rd, Pittsboro NC 27312.

Dr. William Kruesi, DVM: The staff at Cold RiverVeterinary Center has a special interest in safe, natural therapies against cancer. They use a wide range of oral, topical, injectable, and intravenous vitamins depending on the type and stage of the tumor. Clients also receive information on advancements in chemotherapy, radiation treatment and surgery whenever they are indicated. Cold River Veterinary Center is a private practice that emphasizes a holistic approach to animal health. The veterinarians and staff at CRVC offer non-toxic cancer therapies, BioMedical Profiles, homeopathic remedies, glandular, vitamin, mineral, and herbal supplements. In addition they reach clients and veterinarians around the country through mail and telephone consultations. They use natural remedies to treat acute and chronic degenerative diseases in small animals. Treatment may include conventional medications when they are more appropriate or effective. Clients and colleagues learn about the best ways to prevent disease, with fewer adverse drug effects. Cold River Veterinary Center maintains a pharmacy of small animal medications, medicinal herbs, nutritional products and natural remedies. Supplements listed in a BioMedical Profile treatment plan can be ordered by telephone and shipped from their pharmacy or picked up at their clinic in Vermont.

Dr. Kruesi offers telephone consultations to veterinarians and clients who seek information on nutritional medicine. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 - 5:00, by appointment only. New consults are normally scheduled for one hour. For telephone consultations they ask that the caller send or fax copies of previous medical records, test results, or radiographs. These get reviewed prior to the consult to help them better understand your pet and their medical condition. Plan at least a half-hour of your time for a phone consult. Some of the cases are very complex and it may take longer to go over the case. They strive to improve the client's understanding about the nature and cause of disease, and how they might help their pet through home care.
