Advice Needed!!

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone!

 

I am 17, just out of high school with a part time job and I

want to take some kind of degree/certification courses on natural

animal health (herbs, chiropractic, nutrition, aromatherapy etc...)

I have looked at Clayton College of Natural Health...they have a

Herbal Course for Animals...What would anyone's advice for me be?

There is so much I want to learn, and I have no clue where to

start!

I have also looked at going to college to become a vet, and

then take courses on natural alternatives, or would it be better to

take natural health courses and then go to vet school if I still

want to?

I really just want to help animals...dogs, cats and

horses...I've looked at becoming a chiropractor, but I've always had

a strong interest in the healing powers of herbs and aromatherapy, I

also know that nutrition is the basis for a healthy animal...so what

do I do???!!!! Where would be the best place to start? I just need

some major advice!!!!

 

Thank you all in advance!!!!

hello Rachel! I would advise you to attend veterinary school..the regular kind, prior to learning all the natural health to apply to animals. It will help you to be able to practice your medicine within the law in all the states, you will gain a foundation into animal biology, anatomy, and pathology to adjunct your natural practices..You will be able to develope an earnings base and have your own practice without violating any laws. Learn all you can about tellington touch for animals, reiki for animals, flower remedies for animals and various natural diets for animals, as well as various types of animal communication techniques,,these couses you can take as an adjunct.on weekends --holidays or later in time as you chose. I would not suggest applying them while you are in a allopathic school setting..You may not pass your courses,,due to the predjudices within the

allopathic systems. Get that degree in place first, and apply your learning afterward. Continue to learn, but do not tell your teachers, or use it in your studies for a traditional vets degree unless, asked to do so as a study (i.e. the human touch in animal dysfunctions and its applications open animals to healing by relaxing them.) or some such posh... --you have many of the right ideas. but I must tell you, please get a degree or all your knowlege will not be accepted as you apply it. Many people want to use natural health practices with their animal companions, but do not want to harm them or do wrong--so they will want a traditional vet, who can still do the traditional vet stuff as well, and will be up on all the currect medical practices both allopathic and natropathic in the veterinary practice. also, from personal experience, I can tell you that regardless of which

area you chose to study, getting a college degree in anything will make a difference as soon as you graduate in your earnings ability. You will be able to make 35 to 45 thousand dollars per year, as oppossed to 20 thousand, with that money , you can open your own practice and pursue your goals more completely. (from a woman who went to college, but never graduated...and is earning 8 dollars an hour now...) love to best of everything to you... colettecrazy_r_17 <crazy_r_17 wrote: Hello everyone!

Hi!

 

I think you should go for both degrees! The dog with the spot, in the

previous post, owner should contact the college (Herbal Course for

Animals) or a similar college for help. It is not uncommon to receive

help for a reduced fee, as students are doing the work.
