We use various methods to determine the psychophysical state of animals, such as observing their behaviour, checking physiological, growth and other physical parameters. It is important to understand the emotions of animals so that we can give them a better life and allow them to express their specific behaviour. In this way, we can also prevent some of the diseases that can occur when animals' needs are not met. Unfortunately, there is no way to measure emotions directly, but we can still indirectly measure physiological, behavioural, and neural indicators of emotion. Recently, important new approaches to measuring emotions have emerged, based on approaches used in humans. There are several methods of treatment, including acupuncture, bioresonance, hydrotherapy, and others. Acupuncture is used to treat many medical conditions such as neurological problems and pain. It is a method of stimulating specific points on the surface of the body by inserting a needle, which produces a therapeutic effect. Bioresonance therapy is an alternative to reduce the rate of disease, relieve discomfort or pain in animals. It uses electromagnetic frequencies to diagnose and treat a disease. Hydrotherapy is a therapeutic exercise in water on a treadmill. It focuses on treating chronic conditions, pre-surgical exercise and post-surgical recovery in animals. An aurograph is a device that shows insight into energy levels and body functions in dogs. B. Sc. Thesis is not only an overview of the above mentioned complementary treatment approaches, but it also presents some practical examples of acupuncture, bioresonance and hydrotherapy in dogs and cats where their psichophysical state was observed.
