All animals can benefit from Essential Oil Therapy, from household pets to farm animals. My own animals love oils and I have even used them on a goose! The only pets that can't have essential oils are fish and insects.

This site aims to answer some of the more common questions about Essential Oil Therapy such as:

What is Essential Oil Therapy?

The use of essential oils for the promotion of health has a long history and their usefulness in animal care is gaining recognition amongst the veterinary profession and with other animal welfare professionals.

In the wild animals self-medicate using local plants and materials. Essential Oil Therapy works with this natural instinct enabling the animal to choose which oils it will take - they will only take what they need.

Essential Oil Therapy can be useful for the relief of many conditions including:

Allergies
Arthritis
Behavioural problems
Emotional issues
Digestive problems
Muscular problems
Respiratory conditions
Skin conditions
Stress

What to expect from a consultation

As an Essential Oil Therapist I help the owner with the selection of appropriate oils for their animal and then train the owner in how to use them safely.

With all new owners I fill out a consultation form so I have a full history of the animal and the condition that your vet has diagnosed. I also like to meet the animal and take a small hair sample. Before the training session I perform a Kinesiology assessment to highlight any weaknesses within the body and select the correct oils to rebalance these. Once I have identified the final selection of oils I make up them up in the correct dilutions.

I can then train the owner in how to offer these oils to the animal safely and agree a follow-up plan to ensure that we stay in contact.

Please note - Essential Oil Therapy is not a first opinion therapy and you should always consult your vet if worried about the health of your pet.
