At Home Acupressure For Animals Consultations
The flows of life force that run through the bodies of all living creatures, human and animal, have been mapped for over 5,000 years by the traditional Asian healing arts. These flows provide life giving energy to every cell, muscle, organ, tissue & bone. When these pathways become blocked, various disharmonies can arise. When these same pathways flow freely, health & well-being are experienced.
In my more than 23 years practicing traditional Asian and Western natural healing arts for humans their 4 legged friends, I have found Jin Shin Jyutsu® to be a tremendous ally to maintaining well being and to be a wonderful support to modern medicine if needed. Sometimes the regular application of Jin Shin Jyutsu self care combined with in person sessions from a Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioner, has eliminated or significantly reduced the need for medical intervention. If medical intervention/prescription medications are needed, Jin Shin Jyutsu has generally harmonized the human or animal to the chosen medical intervention .
In the Jin Shin Jyutsu self care for animals consultations, you will learn to immediately help your four legged friends in common situations that occur in everday life as well as learning general routines to maintain wellness.
Many people who can not attend one of my in person 8 hour Jin Shin Jyutsu self care classes, have learned to effectively use these simple tools after the initial telephone consultation followed by a few shorter telephone tutorials.

AT HOME ACUPRESSURE FOR ANIMALS

Lexi's Story
How At Home Acupressure for Animals Came to be:
In 1993, I adopted a retired racing greyhound from Linda & Larry Brown’s rescue center in Acton, Ca. From the start, my wonderful new companion, Lexi (aka “St. Lex”) needed a lot of help both physically and emotionally to heal from his experiences on the racetrack as well as to adjust to life with me in my urban condo.
Shortly after Lexi came home with me, I was blessed to find a veterinarian close to us that not only had experience with sighthounds, but even had a grey-hound rescue of his own. A few weeks later, some friends referred me to a veterinary acupuncturist so Lexi could have the best of both worlds supporting him on his journey to wellness.
Even though both vets were kind and gentle, Lexi loathed his much needed frequent “medical” visits creating havoc from the minute his paws touched the vet’s doorway until the time he left the building. He hated his acupuncture visits even more, howl-ing pitifully, and often growling at us with bared teeth when he saw the needles approaching. After a particularly stressful visit at the acupuncturist’s, I decided to literally take matters into my own hands by starting to do short acupressure sessions with Lexi several times a day instead of taking him for acupuncture visits.
Prior to bringing Lexi into my life, my acupressure experience had been only with humans. After much trial and error, I adapted the style of acupressure I used with humans to work with animals. Within a short period of time, our daily light touch acupres-sure sessions not only helped Lexi to heal physically and to release the emotional trauma, but also served as a deeply fulfilling bonding ritual we both looked forward to.
Even though Lexi passed over “The Rainbow Bridge” in 2001, his legacy remains in the form of “At Home Acupressure For Animals” that I now offer in private sessions and workshops.
Over the years, as my understanding deepened through ongoing study and experiences with my animal clientel, the original sequences I adapted to help Lexi evolved into the simple format of at home acupressure routines I now teach.
No prior experience in the healings arts is needed to learn the routines...just a love of animals and a desire to help our 4 legged friends live a healthy, balanced life.
Jin Shin Jyutsu® Acupressure For Animals
The flows of life force that run through the bodies of all living creatures, human and animal, have been mapped for over 5,000 years by the traditional Asian healing arts. These flows provide life giving energy to every cell, muscle, tissue, organ, and bone. When these pathways become blocked, various dis-harmonies can arise. When these same pathways flow freely, optimal health and well being are experienced.
The centuries old traditional Asian wellness art of Jin Shin Jyutsu® works with these subtle energy flows to restore and maintain physical harmony and mental emotional well being.
By gently holding specific locations in combined sequences along these energy pathways you can facilitate the release of stress and tension as well as unlocking the body’s innate ability to heal naturally.
By learning to apply Jin Shin Jyutsu® acupressure at home on your animal companions, you literally stay in touch with their needs and deepen your bond with them.
In my more than 25 years of practicing the traditional Asian healing arts with humans and 18 years with our four legged friends, I have found Jin Shin Jyutsu® to be a tremendous compliment to Western medicine. Many times when medical veterinary intervention or prescription medicines were required, Jin Shin Jyutsu®, has generally harmonized the human or animal to the chosen treatment, often reducing side effects significantly.
