Naturheilkunde und Komplementärmedizin in der Kleintiermedizin – Definitionen und Inhalte

Zusammenfassung

Naturheilkundliche und komplementärmedizinische Verfahren finden auch in der Tiermedizin zunehmend Anwendung. Ein einheitliches Verständnis ihrer Inhalte und Definitionen stellt die Basis einer gelungenen Kommunikation zwischen Tierhalter und Tierarzt dar. Der Artikel gibt einen Überblick über die vorhandenen Definitionen und Inhalte von tiermedizinischer Naturheilkunde und Komplementärmedizin sowie den ihnen zugeordneten Verfahren. Zur Naturheilkunde gehören Phytotherapie, ausleitende Verfahren, Hydrotherapie, Thermotherapie, Elektrotherapie, manuelle Therapie/Chiropraktik/Osteopathie sowie die Ernährungstherapie. Als komplementärmedizinische Verfahren gelten Homöopathie, Homotoxikologie, Traditionelle Chinesische Medizin inklusive Akupunktur und chinesischer Kräutermedizin, Neuraltherapie, Organotherapie sowie die Bachblütentherapie. Die Evidenzgrade der vorhandenen verfahrensspezifischen Fachliteratur sowie die Möglichkeiten von Zertifizierungen differieren stark. Die Akupunktur weist dabei die bisher größte Datenbasis mit teils hohem Evidenzniveau auf.

Abstract

Naturopathic and complementary procedures attain increasing popularity in veterinary medicine. A common understanding of definitions and contents of these fields is crucial for communication between pet owners and veterinarians. This paper reviews the existing definitions and the various contents of naturopathy and complementary veterinary medicine as well as their assigned treatment options. Naturopathy includes phytotherapy, hydro-therapy, thermotherapy, electrotherapy, manual therapy/chiropractic/osteopathy, and dietetic treatment. Homeopathy, homotoxicology, Traditional Chinese Medicine including acu-puncture and Chinese herbal medicine, neural therapy, organotherapy and Bach flower remedies are known as complementary treatments. The level of evidence based on scientific literature and the opportunity for certification procedures differ between treatment modalities. In the area of small animal medicine, the most extensive body of literature is available on the subject of acupuncture, in part comprising high evidence levels.
