1. What is holistic veterinary medicine and science? How does it compare to allopathic veterinary medicine?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:Answer:

Explanation:

1) in "holistic." We take the whole picture of the patient, the environment, the parttern of the disease, the relationship of pet with owner which will enable us to develop treatment using a wide range of therapies for healing the patient, while Allopathic medicine, or allopathy, is a science-based medicine, such as the use of medications or surgery to treat or suppress symptoms or the ill effects of disease.

2) The conditions or problems veterinary chiropractic treatment might be used include degenerative joint disease, acute neck pain, autonomic nervous system problems, weakness of musculoskeletal. It is useful because animal chiropractors examine and treat areas that most times go unnoticed by the traditional veterinary care. By working in conjunction with veterinarians, whole patient treatment is achieved on the animal by chiropractors which restores the pet's optimal health.

3) Essential oils need to be used carefully with animals because without understanding how to use them correctly on the animals, it could become toxic, since the compounds they contain are biologically active, series of dangerous side effects could be caused and also organ damage if not used properly

4)Some veterinarians believe that herbal or botanical medications may be better than allopathic medications in some cases because they use the whole plant instead of one extracted part of the plant which makes the chemical less toxic, harsh, and reduces the amount of side effects.

5) some of the conditions that hydrotherapy might be used for include: Rett syndrome, cerebral palsy etc. it will be a good choice to help treat these conditions because being immersed in warm or hot water raises the body temperature, increasing blood flow around the circulatory system and so alleviating pain. The improved circulation will in turn help to heal injured tissues and rehabilitate damaged muscles or joints.
