With statistics like these, it's not surprising that more and more pet product manufacturers are incorporating alternative healthcare practices into their creations. One such company is Emerald Halo, new on the pet scene, offering dog and cat collars for healing, health and grounding through the power of crystals.
"Crystals are nature's gift to mankind and have been proven to help our four-legged family members, too," explains teacher, Reiki Master, Theta Practitioner, Angel Reader, and Animal Whisperer Karen Nicksich. "Each crystal has a unique vibrational resonance that activates certain energy centers within a pet's electromagnetic system, thus having a positive, healing effect, much like they do for humans. " Nicksich has created three collections for dog and cat lovers to choose from: Custom Healing Collars, special Grounding Collars, and unique Chakra Collars. Each collar is hand-made on black or brown buttery leather or rich tan deer hide in sizes to fit every dog and cat.
Collars start at $49.99. For more information or to view the collections, visit www.emeraldhalo.com. Emerald Halo also offers custom made wire-wrapped jewelry to comfort a pet guardian's soul, energize their spirit, support their Chakra system, or simply provide an anchor to help balance their life.
There are many other examples of this trend in pet products including:

Martha Stewart has released a video on-line featuring alternative medicine for pets.
Pet Wellbeing offers alternative medicine for just about any pet illness.
