Drs. Jeff Feinman and Christina Chambreau join forces to tackle pet guardian questions.
In this webinar, we covered:
0:00 Introduction and welcome
Dr. Christina Chambreau and Dr. Jeff Feinman welcomed attendees to their monthly holistic veterinary webinar, where members could ask questions and learn holistic approaches to animal health issues.
3:20 Treating high blood pressure holistically
Aaron asked how to treat high blood pressure holistically in dogs. Dr. Feinman emphasized lifestyle changes like exercise and a healthy diet to naturally regulate blood pressure without drugs.
7:20 Choosing a holistic veterinarian
Erin expressed hesitation about prescription medications from her vet and was advised to find a truly holistic veterinarian through the Holistic Actions website resources.
23:20 Addressing digestive issues holistically
Amelia, Michelle, and others discussed challenges with inflammatory bowel disease and loose stools in pets. The doctors stressed rebalancing the microbiome naturally over drugs, with probiotics, fresh foods and energy healing approaches.
26:00 Supporting animals through illness and end-of-life
Shelley sought advice for her cat’s lymphoma as chemotherapy seemed unlikely to help. The doctors emphasized palliative care, communication, and energy work to ease suffering during illness or at end-of-life.
50:50 Integrating energy healing approaches
The discussion concluded with recommendations to incorporate energy medicine techniques like The Energy Cure method to heal underlying imbalances rather than just treat symptoms.
