What is Integrative Medicine?​

Integrative Veterinary Medicine is a healing oriented medical approach that takes into account all aspects of an individual: body, mind and spirit. It makes use of all appropriate conventional and complimentary medical options to offer a larger variety of treatment options for patients. It emphasizes the importance of choosing the “best tool from the box,” when considering treatment options for patients and often combines the best options available from both Eastern and Western medical approaches to achieve the maximum benefits possible.

At EIVS, we believe that each patient and their guardian should be “enabled” to reach their full health potential through open communication and education. We are a practice that fosters communicative integrative medicine, not just a quick 15-minute appointment to address concerns.
