About the Author

Christopher Day qualified from Cambridge University and Veterinary School in 1972. He is Principal of The Alternative Veterinary Medicine Centre, in Oxfordshire - website: www.alternativevet.org.

Introduced to homeopathy at about the age of ten or eleven, he used this type of medicine on himself through school and college, for all the usual colds, flu, rugby injuries etc., to great effect. He started using it on some of his patients from the outset of his veterinary career. His use of homeopathy increased rapidly, taking up an increasing proportion of his practice time. His interest in natural medicine led him to take up acupuncture, having studied abroad, and he now uses these two medical systems, in conjunction with other ‘alternatives’, including chiropractic manipulation, herbs, tissue salts, flower essences, aromatherapy etc., in his holistic medicine practice. In 1987, he founded the Alternative Veterinary Medicine Centre (AVMC), the first dedicated holistic practice in the UK. Healthy nutrition is a mainstay of all his daily holistic work, in which he discusses a species-suitable fresh diet for each and every patient.

He is Veterinary Dean to the Faculty of Homeopathy. He was, for more than twenty-five years, Honorary Secretary of the British Association of Homeopathic Veterinary Surgeons, of which he was a founder-member. He has served two terms as President of the International Association for Veterinary Homeopathy, of which he was also a founder-member. He is actively involved in clinical research and treats all species with natural medicine. He has written several books and ebooks on homeopathy, herbs and natural medicine. He lectures around the UK on many aspects of natural medicine and holistic medicine to a wide variety of audiences and teaches vets on post-graduate courses both in the UK and around the world.

Preface

This ebook has descended from my booklet "Homeopathy - First-Aid for Pets" that has been out-of-print for a considerable while.

Feedback from readers has prompted a new version, rather than a reprint, so there are now many additions and clarifications. New material has also been added, to bring the booklet up-to-date with the author’s own development, during the intervening years.

It is hoped that the revisions, additions and updates will result in an even more useable and understandable work, to the health and welfare benefit of the UK’s pet population. This safe, gentle and effective therapy suits all species and they should not be denied its great benefits.

The main website for the Alternative Veterinary Medicine Centre is at: www.alternativevet.org. Christopher Day has also built a website on natural feeding: www.naturalfeeding.uk and one on chiropractic-type manipulation: www.chiropractic-vet.co.uk.

Any comments or suggestions for this ebook will be welcomed and might affect the next edition. Please make contact if there is anything that you feel should be addressed.
