The HolVet Philosophy is simple: it is better to cure disease and promote health and wellness in your dog or cat, than it is to just address or cover up symptoms as is done in conventional
medicine. Our holistic, cure-basedTM approach to medicine is based on twenty-four years of experience
in the field with dogs, cats, and other animals.
We do this by focusing on three main areas: nutrition,
vaccine avoidance, and cure. The links to the right will provide you more information
on how we approach these important areas.
Our main modalities for treatment are education(!),
homeopathy, acupuncture, and herbal therapies. In addition, we rely on conventional diagnostics
like laboratory tests, sonograms, radiographs, and MRIs when appropriate, and recommend conventional treatments
as supportive care where indicated.

Optimal Nutrition is giving your pet's body the fuel it needs for a healthy life. Vaccine Avoidance minimizes health complications that arise from the overuse of inoculations in dogs and cats. Cure
is not the same as alleviating symptoms, or palliation. It is finding and resolving the root of the problem. Homeopathy is method of healing that stimulates the body's own immune system by introducing an FDA-approved
homeopathic remedy into the body. Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese method of healing by stimulating
various points of the body with hair-thin needles. Herbal Therapies are, like homeopathic ones,
derived from natural sources. These therapies can have powerful effects. One such therapy we are using with incredible
success is called Neoplasene, a veterinary cancer treatment.
