Welling Homeopathy Reviews

Homeopathy is an ancient system of medicine that has been in use for over 200 years. It was developed by German physician Samuel Hahnemann and is a holistic approach to healing that targets the entire body, rather than merely treating the isolated set of symptoms. Recently, its benefits have been repurposed for our furry friends too, providing a natural, safe, and effective alternative to traditional veterinary medicine.

For over two decades, our unwavering dedication to optimizing canine health has been transforming the lives of dog owners, bringing them immeasurable happiness and comfort.

We are the only speciality Homeopathy clinic for dogs at our specific clinic branches. We also deliver medicines globally after pre-treatment analysis by our specialist.

What is Homeopathy?

Put in the simplest words, homeopathy is a system of medicine that uses highly diluted substances to trigger the body’s healing responses. These remedies are crafted from plants, animals, or minerals and are often offered in the form of small, sugar-based pills, although they can also be presented in other forms like gels or drops.

How Does Homeopathy Work in Dogs?

The idiosyncrasy of homeopathy is twofold. First, it operates on the principle of ‘like cures like’, meaning it uses micro doses of substances that would cause similar symptoms in a healthy individual that they are meant to treat in a sick one. Second, the remedies are prepared through a unique process of dilution and vigorous shaking, known as ‘potentization,’ creating energy patterns believed to stimulate the dog’s own healing systems. These fundamental principles remain the same, whether treating humans or dogs.

Why Choose Homeopathy for Your Dog?

Natural and Safe
Homeopathy uses all-natural remedies that are free from harsh or synthetic chemicals, making them a safe choice. The risk of serious side effects seems virtually nonexistent, and the substances are so diluted that they don’t pose a threat of toxicity.

Addresses Underlying Issues
Instead of just treating the symptoms, homeopathy addresses the root cause of the illness, fostering overall well-being and better health in the long run.

Individualized Treatment
Homeopathy looks at the dog as a whole, taking into account the breed, age, lifestyle, and emotional factors, and creates a personalized treatment plan. This bespoke approach often leads to better efficacy compared to ‘one-size-fits-all’ treatments.

How to Choose a Homeopathic Veterinarian?

Choosing a homeopathic veterinarian isn’t much different from choosing a traditional one. Look for an experienced and certified professional who specializes in homeopathy, and discuss your dog’s history and unique needs for personalized treatment.

Homeopathy for dogs can be a valuable addition to total care for your pet in a holistic and natural way. It can be a replacement for conventional veterinary care or a supplementary care under a  conventional supervision.

As with any medical practice, results can differ based on individual circumstances. Start by exploring and understanding the basics of homeopathy, consult our specialist, and stay observant to your pet’s reactions. Remember, when it comes to your furry friends’ health, what matters most is their comfort, happiness, and well-being.
