Sorry everyone, this is a question, not a review! I just purchased Dr. Pitcairn’s holistic health book, and this one looks like it is a great companion to that book. However, I was disappointed by the lack of recipes in the Pitcairn book– does this book contain recipes?
If not, can anyone recommend a good recipe book for homecooking?
Thanks!
Boy, now this is a detailed book. This covers every area of holistic care for your canine. I love that it covers aroma therapy, homeopathy and flower essences, in addition to others. These were the areas that I was most interested in. The information is very detailed, which I loved. It’s so nice to have every area covered in one book instead of having to buy numerous books to find out information on various subjects. It also covers massage and TellingtonTouch which you’d usually have to buy individual books for information on these subjects. Preview the table of contents and you’ll find what you’re looking for. Very good book to have on hand.
Over the last several months I have become more interested in learning about natural healings/alternative medicine for myself. Then I got the idea to look for it also for pets animals. I found this book to be very insightfully there are so many different things that fall under holistic care. I will defiantly be reading and learning more about various holistic methods (i.e. massage therapy, aromatherapy, herbs, Bach flowers etc). When I get a new puppy sometime next year I plan to take him to a holistic vet and luckily I think I have found a wonderful clinic thats close to me and combines both holistic treatments and modern vet medicine. I would recommend this to anyone who is interested in holistic opportunities for their pet.
This book arrived within the time frame they gave me and the book is a great book. If you are looking for natural ways to treat your dog, this book will be of a real help. I am totally happy with this purchase. The book is chocked full of tips and ways to manage a crisis with your dog. If you are thinking of ordering this book you won’t be sorry!
I was pleasantly surprised about the content in this book and how well it was organized. One of my favorite chapters was the one with the cross-reference to a dog’s body for massage and acupressure therapy points. The graphic was very detailed; the description of how to do massages for specific areas and what it would accomplish was very good. This was something I’ve never seen covered with such detail in other books about dog care.
