Ears

What is so different about using Chinese herbs for your pet's ear problems?

This powerful combination and the synergistic effect of these Chinese herbs that are assigned to work on dog and cat ear problems,  not only  address the exterior presentation, which is the ear problem itself, but these herbs are programed to balance the issue that is deeper, and what's considered to be the actual root cause of your pet's chronic ear conditions. There is meat and there is potatoes here. We are looking at both.

If you don't get down to the root cause of ear problems, you'll be forever searching the Internet for something that works. Chinese herbs have been documented for thousands of years and have withstood the perils of time and they have been proven to work based on these patterns of disharmony.

Not every ear problem is the same root cause...Understanding your pets pattern of  ear disharmony is the key to naturally helping your pet restore auricular balance.

There are three major types of ear patterns that occur most often and are seen by pet owners:

  • Some dogs and cats have an external ear problem. Those ears will manifest as red, dry and inflamed and may possibly may be accompanied with some ear discharge, but not always, we say that this is Wind.
  • Then there are the more severe ear problems which cause a soupy, foul smelly moist discharge. This problem fits into the category of a yeast or fungal ear infection. (The ear discharging pus), this is called Damp-Heat.
  • Due to a pet's old age, there may be hearing imbalances (deafness) as well there maybe the ears that are red, dry, crusty and irritated, and the Chinese say that this is Blood Deficiency.
To find the herbal formula that best suits your dog or cat's own particular ear infection problem, just match the TCM pattern which you believe fits the problem that your dog or cat is experiencing with their ears.
