Author: Melissa Shelton, DVM

Dr. Melissa Shelton earned her veterinary degree from the University of Minnesota in 1999, and has owned Crow River Animal Hospital in Minnesota since 2001. Essential oils became a passion for her in 2008, and she began using medical aromatherapy with patients. Through continued use, research, and documentation, Dr. Shelton is dedicated to providing accurate information regarding oil use in the animal kingdom. In March 2011, she dedicated her practice solely to the advancement of veterinary aromatherapy, and in February 2014 she introduced animalEO, a line of veterinary essential oil products for animals. She has taught internationally, and has written multiple books on the use of essential oils in animals. animalEO.info or oilyvet.com
