TCM and Behavior Modification with Dr. Neely North, DVM, CVA, CVFT, CVMMA

Published on: 27th February, 2024

In this episode, Nikki talks with Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, Dr. Neely North on how she's using acupuncture and Chinese herbs to address Myer's past trauma.

Dr. North understands and values the difference between surviving and thriving. Her whole-body approach will lead your pet to their best and longest life. Using human-grade whole foods, supplements, Chinese herbs, and more, Dr. North’s goal is to manage your pet’s medical conditions with as little conventional drug intervention as possible. Through your virtual or in-person consultation, you will gain an understanding of your pet’s Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine diagnosis, Western veterinary medicine diagnosis, lab work details, and more. Clients leave feeling heard and with a plan for herbs, supplements, foods, and even a home-cooked recipe (topper or full diet) using foods that benefit their pet’s specific conditions.
