Legal-eese: I am not a chiropractor, a massage therapist or a veterinarian. I have had no training in chiropractic, massage or veterinary work. I do energy work.
My Training: I have trained under Regan Golob D.C. I have taken and passed his Bio-Energy Analysis courses, the basic and the advanced. I have also trained under Kelly Mills, Joan Ranquet and Susan Crawford D.C. for all the modalities listed. I have certificates for Regan's classes and the first level of acupressure from Tallgrass in Colorado. I also have taken the first of 4 VHT (vibromuscular harmonization technique) classes for humans. I will be incorporating this new knowledge into my sessions for people.
Why do we and our animals need bodywork? Our companion animals, through daily activites, get out of balance just like we do. They can speak to us through body language and behavior, to tell us that they are in pain, or not happy with something in their lives. As caretakers, we should try and make their lives as comfortable and happy as possible, and a great way is through bodywork! Have you ever been to the chiropractor or had a massage? Remember how fantastic it feels to be correct and relaxed? All our bodies' systems work better when the structure is correct. One's whole outlook on life can be improved by simply getting out of dis-comfort.
What do I do? I treat the whole animal, even if the reason you call me is because of a specific illness, dis-ease or imbalance. My treatments improve the animals' overall health and well being. You will also learn valuable tools to support your own animal. I will suggest home exercises and stretches that you can do to continue to help your animal after I have left, that will help with the re-education process of the muscles and cells that I began in the session.You will find these exercises very helpful in alleviating both acute and chronic pain and stress patterns by reducing muscle tension, soothing joints, increasing flexibility, improving circulation, relaxation, all by the body coming back into balance. You will become more aware and educated on how to make healthier choices. You can learn to replace your animals' illness with health by better choices. My treatments gently release that which holds the animal out of balance structurally, and will release tension and imbalances caused by tight muscles. I can find the root cause of why the imbalances and tightness are there in the first place, and show you how to prevent them from coming back. My goal is to help the animal/person arrive at a place where the body can start to heal itself.
Everything I do with your animal or you is hands-on, gentle and non-invasive. There are no forceful motions or manipulations. I work with the animal at the speed and depth their bodies can handle at that time, and help the body to change stress and pain patterns. I watch to make sure your animal is comfortable and at ease at all times.You and your animal will be more relaxed when I am done than when I started.
I have knowledge with many different forms of alternative therapies: acupressure, craniosacral, myofascial release, nutritional testing through acupoints, applied kinesiology, structural and energy balancing, bio-energy synchronization techniques and defense physiology. I combine these gentle, non-invasive modalities and techniques of body therapy which are highly effective in dealing with chronic stress, injury, pain and or problems associated with postural and structural imbalances in your animal.
Energy balancing and bodywork offer the following benefits: they stimulate the animals' natural healing abilities, they relax the muscles and the mind, improving disposition and attitude, and improves the animals' movement and performance.
Getting back to basics is a great way to get healthy by living simply and naturally the way our bodies are designed. Dogs and horses are designed a specific way. They benefit hugely by being fed the way they are designed, and by providing a natural environment for them.
