Integrative Veterinary Consultation
In-person and Teleconsultation.
Our integrative veterinary consultation is a clinical approach that seeks to understand your animal beyond the isolated symptom. Instead of just looking at what is visible, we analyze their physical signs, behavior, metabolism, and clinical history to identify the cause of imbalances.
From this assessment and Dr. Someia Umarji's method, we define an individualized therapeutic strategy, which may include nutrition, supplements, and other clinical approaches, always tailored to each animal's biological profile.
An area still rare in Portugal.
The approach we practice combines conventional scientific knowledge with a functional understanding of the organism.
The conceptual basis is Psycho-organology® — a clinical concept developed by Dr. Someia Umarji over more than 20 years of clinical practice — and guides all diagnostic and therapeutic decisions.
The concept
Psycho-organology® read as a system
Psycho-organology® describes the relationship between biological function and the physical, metabolic, and behavioural manifestation of animals. It is the clinical concept underpinning the Dr. Someia Umarji Method.
The organism functions as an integrated system.
Metabolic changes influence physiological responses
Behavioral patterns can reflect underlying biological states.
The body manifests imbalances before illness becomes evident.
Five steps. A complete clinical reading.
Organic Matrix
It defines the patient's individual biological profile, identifying metabolic and inflammatory predispositions and patterns of physiological adaptation.
Clinical Decoding
Chronological analysis of the clinical history, integrating relevant biological events, behavioral changes, and environmental factors.
Integrated Organisational Diagnosis
Integration of clinical observation, complementary examinations, and functional interpretation of the collected data.
Matrix-oriented therapy
Strategies tailored to your biological profile: functional nutrition, targeted supplementation, complementary therapies, and conventional medicine.
Structured Clinical Follow-up
Monitoring of patient progress, with progressive adjustments to the therapeutic strategy.
This vet consultation doesn't start with the symptom
Conventional approach
- Focuses on the symptom present at the moment
- Tests aimed at the hypothesis associated with the symptom
- Therapy defined by the results obtained
- When test results are within reference values, it can be difficult to explain the persistence of symptoms
Dr. Someia Umarji Method
- Considers the body as an interdependent system
- Integrates behaviour, symptoms and metabolism
- Interprets tests within the individual context of the patient
- Seeks to understand the mechanisms of adaptation and physiological failure

Frequently Asked Questions about Integrative Veterinary Consultations
Integrative veterinary medicine is a comprehensive clinical approach with its own methodology.
It can be used as a primary approach or coexist with conventional medicine, depending on the animal's needs and the owner's decision.
It's not about choosing between one or the other, but recognizing that there are different ways to understand and care for health.
Integrative medicine proposes a systemic understanding of the body and individualized therapeutic strategies, integrating conventional medicine resources whenever necessary.
Yes.
Whenever necessary, the consultation may include:
• Laboratory tests
• Functional tests
• Imaging exams
• Specific assessments by clinical area
The difference lies in how the results are interpreted — not as isolated data, but integrated into the animal's biological context.
No.
The integrative consultation is indicated both in clinical situations and in a preventive context.
It allows for understanding the functional state of the organism and anticipating imbalances before they manifest as illness.
- Chronic, recurrent, or degenerative diseases
- Persistent symptoms without an evident cause
Lack of sustained therapeutic response - Absence of diagnosis
Failure to respond to established treatments - Behavioral changes associated with illness
- Implementation of individualized preventive strategies
Yes.
While a specialist consultation focuses on a specific system or organ, an integrative consultation assesses the
interaction between biological systems and how the body responds globally.
The plan is defined based on:
- Comprehensive clinical evaluation
- Functional interpretation of exams
- Individual biological profile
- Metabolic and inflammatory status
- Environmental and behavioral context
It may include nutritional support (in models compatible with the patient's needs and the guardian's capabilities), targeted supplementation, conventional therapies (whenever necessary), and complementary therapies (if justified).
The focus is always on prevention, intervention, well-being, and longevity.
Yes.
The patient's progress is monitored in a structured way, allowing the therapeutic strategy to be adjusted according to the body's response.
Yes.
Both in-person and remote consultation options are available, maintaining the same clinical methodology adapted to each context.
An integrative consultation requires a more in-depth evaluation than conventional consultations, allowing for a detailed analysis of the animal's clinical history and biological profile, and therefore lasts 1 hour.
It is advisable to bring your medical history, previous examinations and tests, a list of current medications, dietary information, and major changes observed. This information helps to build a more accurate assessment.
Yes. An integrative consultation is useful when owners want a more comprehensive clinical assessment of their pet's health, especially in situations where symptoms persist, recur, or do not fully align with the results obtained.
Yes. The integrative approach focuses on understanding the immune system and associated inflammatory factors, allowing for the definition of therapeutic strategies tailored to the animal's biological profile and the clinical evolution of the disease.
Yes. Integrative consultation allows for the monitoring of the animal in an oncological context, contributing to strategies for nutritional support, inflammatory modulation, immune support, and improvement of quality of life, always in conjunction with the defined therapeutic plan. The study of the pre-tumoral clinical history enables an approach towards restoring health with a focus on the individual (not just the disease).
The oncological approach is based on 5 Pillars:
Pillar 1 — Metabolic and Nutritional: Tumor cells profoundly alter the body's metabolism. An appropriate nutritional strategy reduces systemic inflammation, prevents muscle catabolism, improves tolerance to aggressive therapies, and sustains mitochondrial function.
Pillar 2 — Antioxidant and Oxidative Stress Control: Excess free radicals promote DNA damage, tumor progression, chronic inflammation, and accelerated cellular aging. Adequate antioxidant support protects healthy tissues, reduces adverse therapeutic effects, and improves organic recovery.
Pillar 3 — Systemic Immune: The immune system is responsible for recognizing tumor cells, limiting progression, modulating inflammation, and protecting healthy tissues. When compromised, the body loses its ability to contain the disease. Integrative immune support improves adaptive response, reduces secondary infections, and reinforces systemic resistance.
Pillar 4 — Gut Immunity and Microbiota: Much of immune regulation occurs in the gut. Gut dysbiosis can increase systemic inflammation, compromise therapeutic response, alter drug metabolism, and reduce nutrient absorption. Balancing the microbiota improves immune response, reduces chronic inflammation, and optimizes the biological terrain.
Pillar 5 — Symptom Control and Quality of Life: Pain, fatigue, loss of appetite, and discomfort reduce the ability to recover. Adequate support improves well-being, preserves muscle mass, reduces suffering, and allows for a better therapeutic response.
Yes.
Behavioural changes reflect underlying biological states. The integrative approach considers the interaction between the nervous system, inflammation, metabolism, and the environment, allowing for a complete understanding of the observed changes. This assessment helps to understand the biological origin of the changes and treat them in a targeted manner.
