Natural Therapies For Animals

 

Carole Bryant, Naturopath

(HATAA accredited)

 

 

What is naturopathy?

Naturopathy is an holistic healing system that seeks out and treats the cause of ill health rather than just

the symptoms of disease.  Naturopaths believe the body is able to heal itself if we provide it with the mat-

erials it needs to do this.  Naturopathy uses a variety of natural therapies and a plan is designed for your

pet according to their individual needs.

 

What happens when your pet visits a Naturopath?

You will be asked lots of questions – about your pet’s symptoms, history of illness, diet and exercise to help

determine your pet’s overall health and you will be given recommendations on appropriate diet, supplements,

exercise, etc.  Follow up visits may be necessary to monitor your pet’s progress.

 

What is HATAA?

The Holistic Animal Therapy Association Australia Inc. (HATAA) sets standards for training and education

of its members. HATAA accreditation of practitioners ensures a high standard within the profession.  Mem-

bers must also adhere to the HATAA Code of Ethics.

 

What are the various natural therapies used to improve the health of

your pet?

 

·  Nutrition - uses vitamins, minerals and other nutritional substances to correct imbalances and def-

iciencies within the body.  Diet plays a key role in providing this nutritional balance.

·  Herbal medicine - uses traditional and modern knowledge of medicinal plants to bring about heal-

ing.  Herbal tinctures are custom mixed according to individual needs.

·  Homoeopathy - uses minute amounts of various substances (actually the vibrational energy of the

substance) to overcome disease and bring the body into balance.  Homoeopathy acts on both the mental

and physical level.

·  Iridology - not a therapy but a diagnostic tool.  Iridology is used to assist in determining weak-

nesses and imbalances in the various tissues and organs of the body. 

·  Flower essences - uses the vibrational energy of flowers to act primarily on the emotional aspects

of healing. 

 ·  TTouch/TTEAM therapy – use a combination of touches and ground exercises to improve an

animals’ physical, mental and emotional balance and wellbeing.

** Visit our information sheets section for more information about TTouch/TTEAM therapy **

·  Craniosacral balancing - a gentle, hands-on and deeply relaxing therapy that restores balance to

the body through the craniosacral system. Especially helpful for problems originating in the head or

spine.

·  Massage - improves blood and lymph flow and relaxes muscular tension.  Muscles hold the bones to-

gether, so balancing muscle tone can improve movement of joints and relieve pain. 

·  Manipulative Muscle Therapy - pain and dysfunction are often due to misalignment of muscles,

ligaments and tendons.  Manipulative muscle therapy gently realigns these tissues to restore normal move-

ment and function.

·  Kinesiology - uses a combination of touch, acupressure and massage to balance the body.  Also used

to determine food intolerances/sensitivities.

·  Theta Healing - a powerful tool that clears the negative unconscious beliefs which create blocks

to health and wellbeing.

·  Thought Field Therapy (TFT) – clears anxiety/stress, trauma, phobias, self-sabotage, negative

behaviours, addictive behaviours and other emotional problems by clearing the associated negative emot-

ions.

·  Reiki - channels universal energy to promote healing and a feeling of well being.  Reiki is generally

calming and relaxing.

 

When animals don’t do what we ask or expect of them, it is usually because they are physically, mentally

or emotionally unable to do so. Many animals lack awareness of their own body and what they are doing

with their body.  This creates stress and tension which leads to decreased performance potential and

behaviour problems. Animals that don’t fully recover their performance ability after an injury may be

holding the memory of that injury, and the tension that was associated with the injury, at a cellular level

(even if the injury is an old one). TTouch/TTEAM can help release these tensions and allow the animal to

reach its full potential. 

 

As a dog trainer, I have a special interest in working with dogs with behavioural problems.  Tension in

the body is associated with many behavioural problems such as lack of confidence, fear, defensive be-

haviour, fear of thunder, excessive barking, inappropriate chewing and other destructive behaviours. 

Releasing this tension can allow the animal to express more appropriate behaviours. If your dog (or other

animal) displays inappropriate behaviour or performs below its maximum potential, TTouch/TTEAM (and

/or other natural therapies) may help.  TTouch/TTEAM are very gentle therapies, suitable for all animals

from the very young to the very old and frail.  I have seen profound changes in the behaviour and per-

formance of animals after using TTouch/TTEAM therapy.
