Description

Integrative Medicine in Veterinary Practice is a unique resource designed to introduce the basic concepts of ten different integrative modalities to all members of the hospital team to establish a baseline of knowledge: explaining how patients will benefit from their use, discussing return on investment, informing veterinarians of available courses and suggested reading materials, walking managers through staff training, and providing client education materials. Integrative medicine is not an all-or-nothing concept. This umbrella term encompasses a wide spectrum of treatment modalities. Therapies can be used individually or in combination, as part of a multimodal approach, and applied easily to every patient or used in select cases. Key features include: – Photobiomodulation, covering light, laser specifics, mechanisms of action, supplies and equipment, and techniques; – veterinary spinal manipulation therapy (VSMT), covering pain in veterinary patients, mechanisms of action, adjustment vs. manipulation vs. mobilization, techniques, and post-adjustment recommendation. 898 p.

This large textbook gives practitioners of veterinary medicine a framework for adding ‘‘complementary’’ or ‘‘alternative’’ medicine into their practice of science-based medicine. It is a huge work!
