Nancy, There is an oil blend call Di-Tone that works in 10-20 minutes with people when applied topically near location of blockage. For a cow it is applied twice, every 30 minutes - maybe because they have two stomachs. It brings most animals out of cramps as things move along quite quickly.
How I use it: I put it in my hand and hold the animal's paw. Absorption is very fast - like a transdermal patch. It offers comfort and safety to an animal if it is accustomed to being touched all over --- no one is coming near them with a needle etc. Note: It cannot be used on cats as there is a high phenol content a cat's liver cannot integrate properly. Otherwise, a few drops underneath the top lip on the gums and on the tongue. If the animal is very resistant and cannot be contained, a sprinkle a few drops on the spine and then gentle massage into skin, just like with humans. Otherwise, if it is of a more serious nature, I would use the protocols suggested for 'masses'. Again, with dogs, application on the feet, and on the inside of the gums and on the tongue, and even ingestion via a capsule placed at the back of the mouth, holding the mouth closed while rubbing the throat causing swallowing are effective.
