Dog, Cat & Other Consults - In Person or Remote

Applied Zoopharmacognosy

PLEASE NOTE: Even though I am not currently offering in-person Zoopharmacognosy sessions, I do offer amazing Zoopharmacognosy online training courses.

Alternatively, please do contact me as I may be able to recommend another practitioner near you. You can also see my Holistic Health Animal consult.

Applied Zoopharmacognosy is the process of enabling animals to self-medicate on natural products (including herbs and essential oils). During a consult, the animal is offered the natural remedies, and they are allowed the time to decide which ones they need at this point in time.

The animals innately know which remedies they require to bring their mind and body back into balance. Captive animals are not able to seek out the natural remedies they would find in the wild, so this process enables us to bring nature to the animal; it gives the animal control over their own healing and nutrition as they would have had in the wild.

It is a very bonding experience for animal and carer. During the consult, Catherine will offer your animal a selection of the natural remedies prioritised for their physical, emotional or behavioural needs. While offering these, she teaches you, the owner, how to read your animal’s responses so that you can continue to work with your animal towards a sustainable healthy lifestyle change.

Iridology

In-person and distant consults available.

Iridology is the science of analysing the delicate structures of the Iris (the coloured part of the eye). This ancient practice can be used as a nutritional guide and can detect a wealth of information that can assist you in making appropriate management decisions for your dog or cat.

Iridology is a gentle and non-invasive method that involves using a torch, magnifying glass, and camera to examine the irises of your dog or cat. The examination process is completely pain and stress free for your animal, and it’s best conducted indoors to minimize light exposure to the eyes.

What does Iridology show?

Through this technique, I can identify various marks within the irises, providing valuable insights into the dog or cat's current and past health conditions, including the state of organs and body tissues. Iridology can reveal genetic strengths and weaknesses, as well as inherited behavioral and physical characteristics.

It offers an overview of inflammation levels, toxicity, acidity, and the health status of different systems and organs. Additionally, it can indicate issues related to spinal and neuromuscular injury or tension, and underlying pathways to certain conditions.

However, it’s important to note that iridology does not provide medical diagnoses or identify specific diseases. It cannot determine the cause of injuries, identify conditions that have been treated under anesthesia (due to the disruption of neural pathways to the brain), or detect pregnancy, life expectancy, tumors, leukemia, gallstones, kidney stones, rare genetic conditions, or bacterial, or fungal infections. Some of these limitations are due to the body classifying these conditions as normal or due to a lack of research in these areas.

How can it help?

Following the consultation, I may suggest adjustments to your animal's management, as well as recommend supportive herbs, oils, or remedies. If the issue appears to be structural, I might advise a type of bodywork that could be beneficial. As a qualified Red Light therapist I am able undertake bodywork if needed.

Through the iridology results, you will know where to start when offering remedies for self-selection, and what remedies might be appropriate for ongoing support and a healthier lifestyle for your animal once their immediate needs have been addressed.

Owners can be unable to determine the root cause of a physical or behavioural problem. Iridology, which is completely non-invasive, can often provide the missing link the information to inherited weaknesses / strengths, areas of inflammation or stress etc. to equip you with the information to making lasting change in the health and happiness of your animal.

In-person and distant consults available.

PLEASE NOTE: For an in-person Iridology consult, please first email [email protected] to check availability.

For a distant consult, a high resolution close-up photograph of each eye must be provided via email prior to the session. Please contact me for advice on how to do this effectively.

Red Light Therapy (with Essential oils)

Catherine uses Red Light Therapy (Photonic Red Light Torches and Red Light Therapy Pads), in conjunction with essential oils, for enhanced results to restore balance in the animal.

Catherine is one of only a few Level 3 qualified practitioners globally.

This non-invasive and gentle, yet highly effective approach, can be used on acupressure points and points of injury or pain to dramatically reduce pain and accelerate healing to achieve lasting results on both chronic and acute conditions. This is an excellent ‘structural’ support session for your animal.

How it works:

• Reduces pain
• Boosts healing and cellular regeneration
• Anti-inflammatory and anti-viral
• Improves circulation and lymphatic drainage
• Balances energy, chi and supports emotional health
• Stimulates acupressure points
• Improves body function
• Unblocks meridian lines
• Balances energy
• Balances chakras
• Promotes harmony & balance

By supporting basic physiological processes of normal cell cycling, and their circulation throughout the body, Photonic Health red light can have an effect on a number of specific conditions. It can help maintain normal body processes and cellular turnover so your animal stays healthy and vibrant with regular use. As you can see, this is a broad concept but can be used in each animals specific condition.

Animal Communication

Animals obviously do not speak in the same way that humans do, but they are constantly trying to communicate with us.

As most of us are not able to understand an animal's attempt to communicate with us, the animal then has to employ more and more extreme methods, often ones that we humans see as ‘behavioural problems’ to try and make us listen!

Over the ages many humans have lost their ability to communicate with animals using our feelings, however, there is hope and we can re-learn this skill - everyone has this innate ability.

A communication consult can help in many ways, including to uncover any missed signals for any issues your animal may have and make appropriate adjustments to you and your animal’s lifestyle to ensure more understanding and healthy communication.

Catherine will tune into the animal’s thoughts and feelings and relay these to the owner in human terms. This can give great insight into any physical or emotional issues.

Animals are so sensitive to their humans and it can sometimes surprise owners to receive messages from their animals about themselves! This beautiful ability can lead to healing of both animal and owner, resulting in a much deeper bond.

For a distant consult, two photographs must be provided prior to the consult. One focusing straight on the face with the eyes on show and the second with the whole body. Photos must be as recent as possible, no older than one month (unless the animal has passed over).

PLEASE NOTE: For an in-person Animal Communication consult, please first email [email protected] to check availability.
