How Wind Toxin TCVM Herbal Blend Helps Dogs and Cats with Dry Itching Skin
At Natchez Trace Veterinary Servies, Dr. Smith offers an Eastern exam (TCVM) in combination with the standard veterinary exam.
TCVM philosophy differs from our standard Western medical philosophy.
Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine focuses on promoting balance and finding the root cause of pet health challenges rather than simply masking symptoms with prescription medicines.
Through Eastern examination techniques, Dr. Smith chooses herbal blends to treat your pet’s symptoms and help him/her feel better.
And, at the same time, the herbs correct the imbalances causing the symptoms.
However, Wind Toxin is only one of the many TCM herbal blends available for Dr. Smith to choose from based on the the results of the Eastern exam.
During the exam, Dr. Smith may discover indications for a different herbal blend.
