As more people enjoy the benefits of sharing life with a pet, there are more ways than ever before to help our furry family members recover from injuries, heal from emotional and physical wounds, or generally feel better. Thundershirts help dogs who suffer from the fear of thunder storms. Harnesses that use pressure points under a dog’s chest help them stay under control on walks. Putting Rescue Remedy in a pet’s water can help them grow beyond their past challenges and move forward with their new families.
A new holistic treatment modality that is gaining popularity is Healing Touch for Animals®. This approach combines energy work with positive intentions to assist our pets heal from injuries or illnesses, as well as traumatic experiences. By promoting energy balance and healing, our animals gain physical, emotional, mental, and instinctual stability. Healing Touch for Animals® does not replace your vet, rather works as a compliment to your vet’s training.
According to their web site, “Healing Touch for Animals® uses energy medicine therapies–recognized by the National Institutes of Health (NIH)–to integrate, balance and clear the energy body. HTA works by releasing endorphins to establish a deeper relaxation and state of being, allowing the body to function at a greater level. By allowing muscles to relax, circulation is increased, sending more oxygen, nutrients, and hormones into the body to support healing.”
We are pleased to announce that HTA practitioners from around the region will be attending My Furry Valentine offering energy medicine to our many animals that are up for adoption. They will also offer demonstrations on how your animal will benefit from supportive energy work.
Go to Healing Touch for Animals to learn more about energy work and how your pet will benefit from the many treatment options available, or visit their booth at My Furry Valentine.
