Conventional and Holistic Medicine, Dentistry and Surgery for Small Animals

Tellington TTouch is a specialized approach to the care and re-education of animals. Improvements can be made in health and performance, as well as common behavioral and physical problems. It also helps establish a deeper rapport between humans and animals through increased understanding and more effective communication.

TTouch is used to calm animals in stressful situations, to aid in sustaining health in emergency situations and to help to release pain, trauma, and fear stored in the cellular memory of animals. These methods can be extremely useful for situations such as:

  • shock / trauma
  • faster recovery from anesthetic procedures / wound healing
  • physical exams / administering vaccines
  • blood letting / radiology or ultrasound positioning
  • ·administering subcutaneous fluids / medications
  • difficult nail trims, grooming, bathing, ear cleaning
  • stressed or nervous patients and boarders

TTouch can also benefit animals who exhibit:

  • Reactive behavior and excitability
  • Car sickness
  • Extreme fear/shyness/noise sensitivity
  • Separation anxiety
  • Geriatric and aging changes

The circular TTouch movements and lifts combined with the motions of the "awareness through movement" confidence course regiment elicit changes in brainwave patterns that bring tangible results without force, fear, pain, or changing basic nature. Pets with conditions such as hip dysplasia and arthritis have experienced improved balance, confidence, and mobility following TTouch Therapy. TTouch also has helped pets to recover more quickly from surgery and illness.
