Episode 97: How Homeopathy Can Help Your Dog Recover from Surgery with Ekta Kaur Ross

Episode Description:

In this episode of the Homeopathy 247 Podcast, host Mary Greensmith welcomes back Ekta Kaur Ross to talk about how dog owners can use homeopathy to support their pets, especially during times of surgery and recovery.

They share advice, personal stories, and lots of practical tips to help you feel confident using homeopathy at home for your furry friends.

How Homeopathy Can Help Dogs

Mary and Ekta explain that homeopathy works beautifully for animals, just as it does for people.

While dogs can’t speak, owners know their pets well enough to recognize when something isn’t right — and this is key to choosing the right remedies.

They remind listeners that they’re offering coaching, not veterinary services. In the UK, only vets can officially prescribe for animals, but homeopaths can teach dog owners how to use remedies safely themselves.

Using Homeopathy After Surgery

Surgery can be tough on dogs. Homeopathy helps in several ways:

• Before surgery: Use Aconite to ease anxiety and fear before visiting the vet.
• After surgery: Give Arnica for shock, bruising, and soreness right after surgery.
• For healing wounds: Calendula is perfect for speeding up recovery of cuts and stitches.
• For nerve pain: Remedies like Hypericum and Magnesium Phosphoricum can help with deep nerve pain or discomfort after surgery.

The conversation highlights how owners often pick up their dog’s emotions — and sometimes homeopathic support is needed for both pet and owner!

Helping Your Dog Recover from Medications

Many dogs receive antibiotics, anesthetics, and painkillers during medical procedures. Homeopathy offers a gentle way to support their recovery:

• Remedies like Thuja and Nux Vomica can help detox the effects of medications.
• Liver support remedies like Chelidonium can further assist the body’s natural healing.

Recovery doesn’t just happen in a few days — sometimes extra support weeks later can make a real difference.

Building Confidence in Using Homeopathy

Mary and Ekta stress that homeopathy isn’t just about reacting to problems — it’s about empowering owners to feel confident supporting their dogs through all stages of life.

They share how homeopathy can be used as complementary care, working alongside conventional veterinary treatment to speed up healing and improve well-being.
