A simple example :

A dog falls from the first floor of a block of flats and sustains some contusions, a broken front leg and is in a state of mild shock.

Homeopathy, i.e. in this case Arnica, can bring about a fast cure to the mild shock symptoms and contusions, but we need conventional veterinary science to set the broken leg with a plaster cast or a bone plate.

For shock it`s also possible to give Aconite 30c every 5-15 minutes up to 6 doses if necessary.

But homeopathy has something else up its sleeve to speed up the healing process of the fracture which is the hom. remedy Symphytum.

Symphytum (sometimes called glue for the bones ) is very helpful in assisting the bones to heal faster.

You can give Symphytum 6c or 30 c (or 6k or 30k) and it will help the formation of a good bony callus at the sites of the break. Give this remedy to your companion 2-3 times daily for 2-3 weeks approx.

In addition this remedy also decreases the nagging pain often associated with a fractured bone and your pet animal will thank you for that !

No we don't.
we can set the bone ourselves and use a Symphytum plaster cast, which will fix that broken bone in 10 days, rather than waiting at least 6 WEEKS for allopathic treatment to work.

the only thing most homoeopaths would have to refer to allopathy is surgery.
However a GOOD HOMOEOPATH NEVER LETS IT GET TO THE POINT OF SURGERY, SO YOUR CLAIM THEY HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER IS WISHFUL THINKING.

As for surgery, well, i can also do that myself and have done often in India, with people who come too late for regular treatment and for those cases bungled by allopathy - plenty of that available everywhere.
