Dear Kindred Spirits of Japan:

I am so excited to see the creation of the Japanese Animal Wellness Association! Welcome dear kindred spirits to experiencing a whole new world of animal wellness that is based on love and joy. Our animal friends envelope us in a field of loving energy that nourishes our hearts, minds and souls, in the midst of the challenges of our busy lives. When we get so busy and shut our hearts down, animal companions slow us down and open our hearts open. As the world is changing so rapidly at the moment, creating a community of animal lovers committed to holistic animal wellness will be of great benefit to all of you and all of Japan!

Holistic Health Care is essential for our animal’s wellbeing. Holistic health care is an integrative approach to care for ourselves as well as our animal companions in a more natural, balanced way. The foundations of preventive care are good nutrition, humane positive training, balanced exercise program and a natural approach to their health care. Diagnostic and therapeutic approaches should integrate the best of natural therapies including acupuncture, oriental herbal medicine, nutritional supplements, chiropractic care, homeopathy and many other natural healing modalities as well as conventional medicine and surgery where indicated. Nourishing the human animal bond is also beneficial for both you and our kindred spirits.

Creating a loving and healthy home environment is also essential for everyone’s peace of mind and heart. This includes providing as natural, nontoxic, green environment for all of us.
The Japanese Animal Wellness Association is excited to help educate animal lovers on how to offer all of these approaches to their loved ones. They will help educate you on what you are able to do on your own and when you will need appropriate veterinary or other professional care. I am very happy to see the creation of this wonderful new organization. I am honored, humbled and grateful to be part of this wonderful organization! I wish you all a joyous, healthy, peaceful journey together in creating a new world of Animal Wellness in Japan.

Blessings for great joy, success and loving, healthy relationships with all your kindred spirits.

Your Kindred Spirit,
Allen M. Schoen, DVM, MS, PhD (hon.)
