We're Expanding! Okay, so the office is getting crowded again. Time to build! We are adding on to the North side, to accommodate more product storage, add a client restroom and a covered area for horses. We'll also have two holding pens for horses, so they don?t have to stand tied to the trailers, and a grassy "pet relief" area. This is a change from the previously planned full-service clinic, but will serve us well for now. So, if you see signs directing you to an alternate office entrance and hear the cacophonous music of saws and hammers, please bear with us as we grow. We will try to keep the atmosphere as peaceful as we can! Xooma Worldwide's Xtreme X2O water product There is a new water purifying product on the market which alkalizes the water, as well as purifying it of all bacteria and micro-organisms.  It also removes chlorine and other toxins.  And, it adds back all the necessary calcium, magnesium and 74 essential trace minerals to the water.  Animals who are facing health challenges (and ALL people), really benefit from the X2O water.  Since infectious organisms like viruses and bacteria have difficulty surviving in an alkaline environment, this product helps resolve infections and benefits the immune system.  Also, cancer cells do not thrive in alkaline pH environments. Our soils are now 95% depleted of trace minerals (according to a 1993 WHO report -- it's probably even worse than that now!).  These minerals, along with pure water,  are vital for cellular functions and ATP production.  With Xtreme X2O, you and your pets can now get these minerals in an ionized, readily usable form.

In February 2005, Dr. Ault travelled to Crete (in the Greek Isles) for advanced BICOM training with one of the pioneers in the field of Bio-resonance therapy.  This week-long class was followed by another 9 days in Garmisch, Germany  for the annual BICOM Colloquium held by Regumed, the developers of the BICOM therapy device.  International BICOM practitioners meet here every year to exchange the latest findings on bio-resonance therapy, and to share their practice experience.  As one of the few veterinarians using BICOM therapy for her patients in the U.S., Dr. Ault is committed to learning the most current techniques with BICOM Resonance medicine.
