Holistic Veterinary Medicine Club
The HVMC is a student chapter of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association (AHVMA). We aim to inform our colleagues in the veterinary school about the different treatment modalities available to them when they begin to practice veterinary medicine.

To this end, we organize speakers to talk to veterinary students about the modalities they have used to treat their patients. Some of these modalities include acupuncture, chiropractic, massage, herbal medications, homeopathy, ayurveda, etc.
