Whole Food Therapy

Feature 1

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCVM) strongly believes in the healing powers of food, as did the Father of Medicine – Hippocrates. He famously said – “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food”. Many diseases can be prevented and managed with a properly balanced whole food diet.At House Paws Acupuncture, Dr. Arielle identifies the unique dietary requirements of each patient based on their age, breed, personality, western disease and TCVM disease pattern. We then design unique human grade food lists, recipes, or over the counter whole food diets. Diet alone can have a major impact on your pets health. Dr. Arielle’s goal is to have all pets on a whole food diet and cancel dry kibble. Whole food diets are designed not just to get rid of the ailment, but to also pursue a healthy lifestyle. Any long term diets are reviewed via a Board certified veterinary nutritionist.
