When left to fend for themselves in the wild, animals don’t hesitate toself-medicate in the natural “pharmacies” found in fields, forests, and woodlands. In fact, this is how the medicinal properties of many plants were first discovered. Humans have always used plants to treat themselves and their animals. Although it was neglected in the last century in favor of so-called allopathic medicines (most of which, however, are derived from plants), alternative medicine is experiencing a resurgence and is taking its rightful place within our medical arsenal to treat our pets naturally.
Veterinary herbal medicine is the art of treating animals with plants. As with humans, it is important to strictly follow the recommendations of health experts (pharmacists and veterinarians) and to tailor natural treatments to each individual animal.
The use of alternative methods to treat animals by pet owners (dogs, cats, rabbits, and other exotic pets), as well as by breeders and farmers, continues to grow. Veterinary medicine is evolving, and gentle or natural methods are increasingly recognized by the scientific community. They help meet consumer expectations and limit the use of antibiotics in animal husbandry—treatments that are, moreover, very costly. Alternative methods also have the great advantage of emphasizing prevention and an understanding of animals.
Phytotherapy is a medical treatment method based onthe use of medicinal plants. It has been used for millennia around the world to treat humans, but it is also increasingly used for pets such as dogs, cats, and other domestic animals.
Herbal remedies for animals are often used to treat the same conditions as conventional medications, such as infections, joint pain, digestive issues, and behavioral problems. However, unlike conventional medications, which can cause unwanted side effects, herbal remedies are generally considered safer and gentler for animals.
Herbal medicine involves the use of plants for healing. The active ingredients found today in some conventional medications are the same as those found naturally in certain plants used to treat our pets.
It is recommended to use harpagophytum—such as Vetosan from Clément Thekan Laboratories—to treat your pet’s joint problems, or valerian-based dietary supplements tohelp relieve stress in dogs and cats.
If your pet is scratching, for example, or has dry skin, you can apply a soothing shampoo made with calendula, which has calming and healing properties.
