Product Overview
We offer comprehensive health assessments for dogs who are challenged by chronic or more complex health conditions including digestive conditions, allergies, skin issues, immune disorders, kidney problems, fatigue, joint pain and inflammation, anxiety, and emotional and behaviour problems.
A full evaluation and health work-up can help determine those underlying factors that are affecting your pets’ health which are usually different for every dog. These include food allergies/intolerances, nutritional deficiencies, poor organ function, toxicity, lifestyle problems, stress, and emotional imbalances.
Once the cause(s) have been identified, a customized health program is formulated specific to your dog. The finished program can include diet and nutrition changes, herbal and homeopathic remedies, and lifestyle changes.
Health assessments for dogs are conducted by our CEO, Marijke van de Water, who has over two decades of experience working with animals. She is also the author of Healing Dogs Their Way a comprehensive reference book with extensive information on diet, nutrition, and natural health care programs for all health conditions.
Aside from her experience and vast expertise Marijke uses a unique method of autonomic response testing (energy testing) to assess the imbalances and causes of their health problems. This method takes the guesswork out of formulating an effective holistic program and allows her to evaluate organ function, sources of toxicity, diet requirements, and nutritional deficiencies to help all dogs of all breeds reach optimal health.
If your dog has a lot of food and diet issues or chronic problems with allergies, we recommend to do the Food Allergy Testing along with the Health Consultation.
"Nyah has been doing really well, we've seen a big change over the last six weeks!
Her mobility has improved (I will attach an image to show how her stance has changed at the water bowl!), and my somatic body worker has even helped her stretch through her back for the first time in years! Very exciting.
Her incontinence has improved. And, we have not had any diarrhea or spitting up acid since the first week, and her bowel movements have been very regular. Water consumption is about the same, maybe a little less, and throat clearing has lessened.
I am so thankful for your help, it's been wonderful to see her regain her mobility!! ...Peggy L."
