Ttouch For ThinkingPets

TTouch is a gentle, non invasive approach to the care and training of our animal companions. This method, based on cooperation and respect, offers a positive approach to training and can improve performance and health and presents solutions to common behavioural and physical problems. It also helps establish a deeper rapport between humans and animals through increased understanding and more effective communication.

TTouch consists of specific circular movements of the fingers and hands all over the body, slides, lifts, and movement exercises. The intent of the TTouch is to activate the function of the cells and awaken cellular intelligence - a little like "turning on the electric lights of the body". TTouch helps to release tension and increase body awareness. This allows the animal to be handled without provoking typical fear responses. The animal can then learn new and more appropriate behaviours. By using TTouch and a variety of other tools, like the Confidence Course, you can assist the animal in experiencing self-confidence in previously frightening situations. Even the most difficult problems are often eliminated. You can also learn how to apply TTouch to assist with recovery from illness or injury, or just enhance the quality of your animal's life.

TTouch can help in cases of:

  • Resistance to Grooming.
  • Excitability & Nervousness.
  • Car Sickness.
  • Problems Associated With Aging.
