Animal Wellness Vets: Recent Episodes
Animal Wellness Vets
The Animal Wellness Podcasts aim to educate and enlighten pet owners on an Integrated Medical approach to animal wellness and veterinary medicine.
Meet Dr Elaine Sebulak and vet nurse Oceana from Animal Wellness, a holistic veterinary clinic where modern medicine meets natural therapies.
In this episode, Oceana shares her journey from leaving school early to follow her passion for animals, to studying and working as a vet nurse in training. Growing up surrounded by pets, camping on farms, and being around horses, cows, sheep and more, she always knew she wanted a career caring for animals.
Dr Elaine then opens the door to some of the most interesting and advanced treatments they use in the clinic, including:
- High-dose IV Vitamin C for cancer and sepsis (Riordan protocol–inspired), and why it can help dogs and other animals feel better and live longer
- Specialised veterinary dentistry – how hidden dental disease, broken teeth and periodontal issues can cause pain, heart, kidney and liver problems, and what proper dental X‑rays can reveal
- Acupuncture, massage and homeopathy for mobility, pain relief and nerve injuries – including cases where paralyzed pets walk out after treatment
- Axel therapy mats and laser therapy – advanced tools that support recovery, reduce pain and improve performance for pets, including show dogs and breeding animals
- Underwater treadmill rehab and why structured physical therapy matters so much for long‑term health
If you're a pet parent, vet nurse student, or animal lover interested in holistic veterinary care, integrative cancer support, pet dentistry, and cutting‑edge rehab therapies, this conversation will give you a hopeful, behind‑the‑scenes look at what's possible.
