Today’s post is about Craniosacral therapy, a modality that I have been curious about for a long time, and just recently tried for myself. I grind my teeth in my sleep pretty badly, and wanted to see if Craniosacral therapy could help. At the time I’m writing this, I have been for 8 treatments, and […]
Cushing’s And Tong Ren – Our Experience
In October of 2009, our Scottie Sadie was diagnosed with Cushing’s disease. It was discovered by chance – she had her yearly checkup in early October and our vet found that she had an inflammation in her mouth and needed to have a few teeth removed. Her blood test showed elevated liver enzymes, which our […]
Massage Helps A Samoyed Get Back On His Feet And A PBGV With Epilepsy
I think many people don’t realize quite how powerful alternative therapies can be. Most people are aware that massage can help relieve stiff and sore muscles and loosen up scar tissue, but it can also be a tremendous help with many other conditions, both physical and psychological. We have talked about what massage is exactly earlier on […]

What is Healing Touch for Animals? Healing Touch for Animals, or HTA, was created by […]
Introduction To Small Animal Acupressure
Today’s post is a review of a DVD I recently had the pleasure to watch: Introduction to Small Animal Acupressure by Amy Snow and Nancy Zidonis, founders and owners of Tallgrass Animal Acupressure Institute.

National Board of Certification for Animal Acupressure and Massage News
For those who have not read my earlier post on the National Board of Certification for Animal Acupressure (NBCAAM), it was established in 2008 on the initiative of Amy Snow and Nancy Zidonis of Tallgrass Animal Acupressure Institute. Their goal was to establish professional standards for animal massage and acupressure practitioners and, in their own […]
EFT Helps A Dog With Aggression
Today’s featured healing modality is EFT, or Emotional Freedom Technique. It is a really interesting and (on the surface at least) easy method to clear up mental and physical issues. I say on the surface, because you have to get to the root of the problem, and figuring out just which stressful event led to […]

Acupressure Case Study – Allergy Relief For A Horse
Today we have a guest post that talks about an ailment I think many animal owners can relate to – allergies. In this case study, the practitioner uses acupressure (which I have described in more depth in my earlier “Alternative Healing Modality: Acupressure” post) to provide allergy relief for a horse. Yes, horses have allergies too. […]
