PODCAST: Combining Integrative and Allopathic Medicine

In this conversation, Dr. Randy Aronson discusses the science — and significance — of a holistic/integrative approach to pet health and wellness, one he frequently combines with an Allopathic — traditional western medicine — modality to achieve the best outcome for his patients. The conversation explores the new and emerging frontier — and the challenges— for veterinarians as they become more open to combining holistic and integrative approaches to animal wellness. Interestingly, scientists no longer turn-away from holistic medicine. After years of accusing holistic practitioners — regardless of their credentials — of being “quacks,” many now view this modality as credible.

Dr. Aronson, shares his personal journey of learning and acquiring certifications in acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, and rehabilitation. He emphasizes the importance of proper nutrition, biome, exercise, training, and stress reduction (PETS) in promoting longevity and quality of life for animals. The discussion also touches on the significance of the gut-brain connection, the role of food sensitivity testing, et al., in improving animal health.n the conversation with Randy Aronson, VMD, CCRT, CVA
