(18)

Holistic comes from the word whole, meaning that it treats the whole animal, rather than just the symptoms. The holistic view is that symptoms are an expression of lack of ease or dis-ease and they are the animal’s way of communicating that something is out of balance. Homeopathic remedies work with the animal’s body to trigger or assist its natural healing response rather than to suppress symptoms.

Obituary Chris Day

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share the news that Chris Day passed away peacefully in his sleep on Tuesday 18th April after a period of illness.

Words seem inadequate to describe what Chris meant to veterinary homeopathy in the UK and in fact worldwide. There can be few of us that haven’t been inspired or influenced by him during our own homeopathic journeys. He was one of a handful of homeopathic vets in the 1980’s alongside George McLeod, Frances Hunter and John Saxton who brought homeopathy into modern veterinary practice. He was a founder member of the IAVH as well as The BAHVS. He opened the Alternative Veterinary Medicine Centre near Oxford, a ground breaking practice where a holistic approach and the use of homeopathy was at the centre of all that he did. He spread the word about homeopathy enthusiastically and energetically, giving hundreds of talks to the general public and also teaching generations of new homeopathic vets. He was one of the founder members of the British Association of Homeopathic Veterinary Surgeons (BAHVS) and the Homeopathic Physicians Teaching Group (HPTG), he also served as the Veterinary Dean of the Faculty of Homeopathy for many years and secretary of BAHVS for over 25 years and was president of BAHVS from 2017 - 2020

Chris’s death really does mark the end of an era for veterinary homeopathy in the UK, he was a truly unique individual; passionate, determined, forthright in his views, a man of a piercing intellect and capacious intelligence who helped bring homeopathy into modern veterinary practice and who inspired the next generation of vets by giving them the confidence to practise homeopathy in their own ways. At this time, as we are all reeling from the shock of his death, the world does seem a lesser place without him, the gap left by his absence almost too much to contemplate but the dreadful sense of loss is tempered by the knowledge that he will continue to guide us in the legacy he left with his work and his teaching and he will always be a presence in our lives. It would give him the greatest of pleasures to see homeopathy grow and flourish, so go on we must and continue spreading the word as he did throughout his life and we should take courage from his example.

The BAHVS is currently exploring ways of honouring Chris's life and work and more details will be released soon.

Our thoughts are with Shelagh his wife and all his family.

Our Story

Homeopathic remedies are not drugs. Homeopathy works by triggering a healing response in the body. Only a very dilute amount of a homeopathic remedy is needed to trigger this healing response which makes homeopathy safe for all animals and free from side effects. The other huge benefit of homeopathy is that when the healing response has been triggered and the animal’s health returns to its state prior to illness the remedy no longer needs to be taken, whereas traditional medicine often requires the medication to be taken indefinitely or the symptoms may return. There are no known interactions between homeopathic remedies and other medicines, they can safely be taken alongside conventional veterinary treatments.
