Holistic Pet Care – What Works and What’s Just Hype?
Essential oils, raw food, acupuncture, CBD — pet wellness is going “natural.” But not everything trending is trustworthy. At VetPlayas, we’re here to separate fact from fluff.
🌿 What Is Holistic Pet Care?
Holistic care means looking at the whole pet — physical, emotional, and environmental health. It often includes:
- Nutrition and diet changes (e.g., raw or home-cooked food)
- Supplements and herbs
- Chiropractic or acupuncture therapy
- Massage, reiki, or energy work
- CBD oils and hemp treats
Used correctly, some of these approaches can support traditional vet care — not replace it.
✅ Holistic Therapies That Actually Work
- Acupuncture – Can help with arthritis, nerve pain, and anxiety
- CBD (from hemp) – May ease pain and inflammation in pets, but dosage matters
- Omega-3 supplements – Great for joints, skin, and heart
- Therapeutic massage – Eases stress and promotes circulation
These methods are generally safe — especially when used under veterinary supervision.
⚠️ Trends to Be Cautious About
- Essential oils – Many are toxic to pets (especially cats)
- Raw diets – Can carry parasites and bacteria if not handled properly
- Unregulated supplements – May be ineffective or harmful
“Natural” doesn't always mean safe. We help you choose wisely.
🧠 When to Blend Holistic with Conventional Care
We support integrative care — combining modern medicine with proven holistic tools. For example:
- Use acupuncture to ease post-surgery pain
- Try CBD for chronic arthritis — alongside joint meds
- Feed a cooked, balanced diet guided by a vet nutritionist
Let’s build a plan around what actually helps your pet — not what’s trending on social media.
