When we think about the word "Body" we often think of it as being parts like an arm or a leg, or an independent physical form, or we think of our health.  For the purpose of our Holistic Dog Program we are going to take a different approach when dealing with the body.

When looking at the Body we are not going to segregate it from the whole, but rather look at how the Body in itself is reacting to whole (internal & external factors), what we can learn from those reactions, and how we can bring balance back to the whole.  For example we can use CranioSacral Techniques to calm a dog's Reticular Activating System (RAS) and reduce shaking from fear during thunderstorms, these techniques use the mind & body to achieve the results.

Along with the THREE C's the following modalities may be included in our Holistic Dog Program or can be scheduled individually based on your needs. 

CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

CranioSacral Therapy (CST), is a gentle, light touch method of evaluating and enhancing the craniosacral system in both people and animals. It works by assisting the body's natural healing abilities to combat stress on the nervous sytem and to pinpoint and remove energy blockages that may have occured.

Brief Description of the CranioSacral System:

The craniosacral system consists of membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding and protecting the brain and spinal cord.  It extends from the bones in the head  (cranium) and face to the tailbone (sacrum).  CST can improve the overall well-being of the recipient and assist in correcting any imbalances within the system.

Benefits:

CST has been known to be effective in treating various Emotional & Behavioral Issues such as aggression, seperation anxiety, hyper-activity, improving self-confidance and training issues.

Reduces stress and improves general well-being.

CST has also been used to treat many other disorders including; Hip Dysplasia, Neurological Disorders, Digestive Disorders, Structural Injuries and Post-Surgical Recovery.

CHAKRA  CLEARING & BALANCING

Brings relaxation, clears energy blocks and imbalances and grounds your pet so he/she can enjoy a feeling of balance and well-being.

REIKI

Reiki is the Japanese word for Universal Life Energy and is traditionally described as a hands-on stress reduction technique that promotes relaxation and a sense of balance and healing, and is a form of energy healing.

Animals receive and enjoy Reiki sessions in a very natural way.  They are accepting by nature of the gentle warmth and vibrations experienced during the session.

Reiki can lesson anxiety and fear by increasing calm and relaxation in your pet, and may increase energy and vitality in older  and ailing animals.

ANIMAL COMMUNICATION

Animal communication sessions can be used as a tool to receive further insight from your animal as to how he or she is feeling.  These sessions can be especially useful if you have an animal who for some unknown reason is not seeming to return to normal health after an illness or is currently not responding to treatment as he or she should.  I have worked with Veterinarians on cases like this to give them further information and more specifically treat the symptoms relayed by the animal.

ESSENTIAL OILS

Essential Oils have been used for thousands of years for the their beneficial healing properties, and continue to grow in popularity today.  Many of our modern day "medicines" are synthetic copies that are based on the properties of many essential oils.  CAUTION is warranted though when using essential oils with animals, if you are not familiar with essential oils it is best to consult a professional before using them with your animal and only use the highest quality therapeutic oils from a reputable company.  That being said.. I have seen wonderful results come about from using essential oils with animals and recommend them for use with many of my clients.

NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING & SUPPLEMENTS

Diet is an important component to your dog's well-being, and we believe the best approach is to avoid commercial foods with By-Products and Preservatives.

We are happy to suggest a healthy, well-balanced diet after a consultantion based on your dog's need.
