Vsurance, Inc. First Pet Health Insurance Provider To Cover Holistic Treatments

Posted on: Monday, 17 December 2007, 09:00 CST

Vsurance, Inc. (OTCBB:VSUR), a leading provider of pet health insurance, announced today that it is the first and only pet health insurance provider to cover holistic treatments in the prevention of illness of dogs and cats.

Holistic medicines & care is an alternative way of healing companion animals. It is the art and science of healing that addresses care of the whole animal -- body, mind, and spirit. The practice of holistic medicine integrates conventional and complementary therapies to promote optimal health and to prevent and treat disease by addressing contributing factors. In addition to not only using the normal drugs and medicines, the attending veterinarian might prescribe remedies brought to us through natural sources.

The American Holistic Medical Association (AHMA) founded in 1978 is a membership organization for physicians seeking to practice a broader form of medicine than what was (and is) currently taught in allopathic (MD and DO) medical schools. For 25 years the AHMA has nurtured and educated physicians making this transition. Current membership is nearly 1,000 physicians and allied health professionals who seek to make the holistic model available to patients and practitioners alike (www.holisticmedicine.org).

"We are very excited to provide health insurance coverage for this growing treatment option for companion animal owners," stated Russell Smith, CEO of Vsurance, Inc. "This is an important and defining difference in what makes our pet health insurance plans the best in the marketplace today."
