In
an Introduction to Holistic Veterinary Medicine,
Dr.
McCluggage outlines the basic concepts that a holistic-minded
doctor follows in treating patients, with the two most important
tenets being "let the body heal itself" and "above
all, do no harm." He discusses numerous modalities of
holistic remedies and suggests ways to incorporate them into
a practice.
Dr.
McCluggage also explains that practitioners of holistic veterinary
medicine strive to understand the underlying antecedents that
produce the disease in question and then direct therapies
to treat the root cause of the disease and not just simply
eliminate the signs and symptoms.
Dr.
David McCluggage has practiced complementary veterinary
medicine since 1991 and was selected as Holistic Veterinarian
of the Year by the AHVMA in 2000. He has held leadership
roles in many professional organizations including the Association
of Avian Veterinarians, the American Holistic Veterinary Medical
Association, and the American Academy of Veterinary Acupuncture.
Dr.
McCluggage has advanced training in homeopathy and acupuncture
and has completed courses in Chinese Herbal Medicine. His
primary areas of interest are in nutritional, botanical, and
nutraceutical medicines, and has written and lectured extensively
on these subjects.
