Canine Myofunctional Therapy (CMT)

what is CMT ?

Dogs in general are natural athletes and like most athletes they “play through the pain”. Dogs, unfortunately won’t tell you when they are sore, stiff, pulled a muscle or when something is not right. Instead they will continue on, sometimes with no indication there is a problem until it becomes serious. As humans, we know all too well the benefits of massage so these same principles apply for dogs as well. CMT is a holistic approach using gentle massage techniques to manipulate the muscles, soft tissues, circulation and immune system to promote the body’s natural healing process.

Animal Reiki

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a hands-on healing method that originated in Japan. The practitioner channels healing energy through her hands to the animal through a light touch either directly on the body or from a distance. The word Reiki (pronounced “ray-key”) is a Japanese composite word usually translated as “universal life energy”. It is based on the idea that all living beings have life energy flowing through them. When life energy is high, your pets are healthy and balanced, more relaxed and less likely to get sick. When it is low, they’ll often be more easily affected by stress and less resistant to illness. Reiki is a safe complement to conventional Western medicine, Chinese medicine, herbal medicine, homeopathy and all other forms of healing.

During a Reiki session, animals often experience a deep state of peace as the Reiki clears imbalances, allowing for new and harmonious patterns of health and wellness to emerge. Physical contact is not a requirement for Reiki and traditionally the practitioner offers Reiki to the animal hands off. This way, the animal controls the treatment, either accepting Reiki from a distance or settling themselves against the practitioner’s hands.

Benefits of Reiki:

• Addresses any issues at any level: physical, emotional and spiritual
•  Promotes relaxation and stress relief
•  Complements both conventional and alternative healing methods
•  Speeds up healing after surgery or illness, and relieves pain
•  Promotes energetic harmony and well-being
•  Improves behaviour problems and heals anxiety-related problems
