Organotherapy is a practice that has been around for a very long time, but what exactly does it mean? and how can it benefit your dog?
Organotherapy is a holistic approach that dates back to the early 20th century. Rooted in the belief that 'like supports like', organotherapy involves using animal organs and tissues to promote health and healing in corresponding organs within the human or animal body. While it might sound unconventional, organotherapy has gained attention for its potential positive impacts on various health conditions in dogs.
The origins of organotherapy can be traced back to Swiss physician Paul Niehans, who is credited with introducing the concept of using animal glands to treat human ailments. Niehans performed ground-breaking work in the 1930s, particularly with parathyroid and thyroid glands, laying the foundation for the development of organotherapy as a medical practice. Over time, organotherapy expanded to include a variety of animal organs, each believed to offer unique benefits to specific areas of the body.
Organotherapy for dogs involves the use of carefully selected animal organs or tissues to address specific health concerns. Supporters of organotherapy argue that this approach can provide essential nutrients, enzymes, and peptides that contribute to the overall well-being of dogs. Here are a few ways in which organotherapy may positively affect your furry friend:
At Paleo Ridge, all of our complete meals contain a 10% inclusion of organ meats which provide an abundance of essential vitamins, minerals and amino acids needed for a healthy, well-balanced diet.
While organotherapy is considered by some as a complementary approach to traditional veterinary care, it's crucial to consult with a veterinarian before incorporating it into your dog's health regimen. Understanding the specific needs of your dog and tailoring organotherapy accordingly can contribute to a holistic and personalised approach to canine well-being. As with any alternative therapy, an informed and collaborative approach with your veterinarian is essential to ensure the best care for your furry companion.

“I introduced it to Eileen when she was pregnant. She thrived on it and did not lose any condition whilst carrying and feeding her seven puppies,” Maria explained. “The puppies all took to the Paleo Ridge raw diet straight away. They never had upset tummies and their poos were not offensive and we were less frequent than my experience with previous litters. They all went home with Paleo Ridge in their puppy packs.”
