About Sparklehealth

Sparklehealth is designed to bring together complementary healthcare products that can make a real difference. It also has a variety of other items that may be of interest but are of good quality and value, or simply be worthy of support. Sparklehealth is run by Rob Ellis, who also runs Canine Health Concern with his wife, Catherine O'Driscoll. Products on these web pages are either direct links to the particular selling company or available direct from the site.

By purchasing through these pages you will help Canine Health Concern, as a donation will be passed back to CHC from sales. In addition to this, CHC members will have access to discounts that we have been able to secure on certain products. So the aim is for Rob, CHC, its members, and the general public to all benefit, without which it would not be possible.

Customer information will not be disclosed to any third party or made public without their prior consent, other than that which may already be in the public domain (eg. contact information if the customer is in business).

Disclaimer

We do not accept any responsibility for the content of any external site linked or providing information on these pages. Further information of any claims made by such sites or enquiries regarding their information should be made direct to the site concerned.

Before following any of the advice on this site please note that in many countries it is illegal to diagnose or treat any animal except your own unless you are a fully qualified veterinary surgeon (see Veterinary Surgeons Act UK), or unless a veterinary surgeon has referred an animal to you for treatment. The services offered are not intended to substitute any veterinary treatment. Indeed, we take great pains to assert that veterinary surgeons are invaluable members of the community, possessing a great wealth of knowledge, and that the support of a skilled vet is mandatory for the health of your animals. We suggest only that you choose your vet with care, and work alongside him or her for the optimum benefit of your animal friends.

This site exists to provide information on alternative, holistic, complementary health care for pets. It does not substitute for professional veterinary care. Never try to diagnose and treat illness solely from the information in these pages. If you are ever in any doubt about your pet's health or welfare, you must consult your vet. Remember that failure to do so could put your pet's life at risk. We are sincerely committed to raising our pets with loving kindness and conducting our business with integrity. We believe in honesty and that a truthful exchange of information among pet owners will benefit our pets. We believe in minimum vaccination, raw food, and healthy feeding. Most importantly, we believe in the self-empowerment of animal guardians, and in their growth as healers and people who love the animal world.

These web pages contain only information that we believe to be true. However we offer no guarantee, either express or implied, that the information contained within these pages is accurate. The presence of any party, service or information on these pages should not be construed as an endorsement by us.

Veterinary Surgeons Act (UK)

By law, it is illegal for anyone who is not a vet to diagnose or treat an animal. Unless, of course, you are treating your own animal. It is within the law for you to provide healthcare for your own animal. The RCVS recognises as acceptable in terms of the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966 (NFSH Code of Conduct) the complementary treatment of animals by contact healing, by the laying on of hands, by radionic instrument and distant healing by thought transference or prayer in strict accordance with the provisions and spirit of this Code of Conduct.

My advice – for what it’s worth – is for you to work alongside a carefully chosen vet who respects your wish to look at complementary preventative and treatment options. To find such a vet, you can phone surgeries listed in your local Yellow Pages directory, explain that you wish to treat your animals naturally wherever possible, and ask if there is a vet who will work alongside you on this basis. In my experience, there is always such a vet in your area.

Another option is to seek out a holistic or homoeopathic vet. But beware – despite the positive label, not all holistic or homoeopathic vets are what they say they are. Some will ask you to vaccinate when you don’t need to. Again, be discriminating in your choices. Your animals will tell you – by responding with health or ill health – whether you’re on the right track. This applies to veterinary drugs, too. If your animals are receiving veterinary treatment but they still seem far from well, then maybe it’s time to look at the alternatives.

The point is that you are the one charged with the care of your animal friends. Take your power back, and make informed choices, and you’ll never regret it.

Please refer to the relevant legislation for countries outside the UK.
