Tellington Ttouch Therapy For Your Dog

talalogoa

Developed by internationally recognized animal expert, Linda Tellington-Jones, this method based on cooperation and respect and offers a positive approach to training.

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".  The TTouch is done on the entire body, and each circular TTouch is complete within itself. Therefore it is not necessary to understand anatomy to be successful in speeding up the healing of injuries or ailments, or changing undesirable habits or behaviour.

Tellington TTouch is a specialised approach to the care and training of pets which can help to overcome anxieties, injuries and illnesses. The circular TTouch movements elicit changes in brainwave patterns that bring tangible results - without force, fear, pain or changing basic nature.

Improvements can be made in health and performance as well as common behavioural and physical problems. It also helps establish a deeper rapport between humans and animals through increased understanding and more effective communication.

It can improve performance and health and presents solutions to common behavioral and physical problems. It also helps establish a deeper rapport between humans and animals through increased understanding and more effective communication. Using a combination of specific touches, lifts, and movement exercises, 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 more easily learn new and more appropriate behaviors. By using the TTouch 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 the Tellington TTouch to assist with recovery from illness or injury, or just enhance the quality of your animal's life.

Some of the benefits of using TTouch are:

a reduction in aggressive behaviour, excitability
car sickness
extreme fear/shyness
separation anxiety
ageing problems
noise sensitivity
Excessive Barking & Chewing
Leash Pulling
Jumping Up
Resistance to Grooming
Nervousness  
Problems Associated With Aging


Pets have also experienced improved balance, confidence and mobility often from problems such as hip dysplasia and arthritis, as well as a quicker recovery from surgery and illness.

What is Tellington TTouch ?
TTouch is a method used to help animals through their problem - no matter what the cause. Inappropriate behaviours diminish, health & condition improve and confidence grows. Your animal starts to think about their actions. The technique is based upon bodywork - moving the skin in light circles; groundwork - simple obstacles to encourage co-ordination, and leading exercises (mainly for dogs) all combining to form TTouch.

How did it develop ?
Whilst training to be a Feldenkrais Practitioner around 30 years ago, Linda Tellington-Jones (a renowned endurance rider in the United States) learnt how tension patterns affect the ability to use the body with ease and how this affected the functioning of the mind. Using gentle touch and movements, awareness is brought to these patterns allowing the system to naturally search for new ways of being.

Linda began to apply these principles to her horses and saw extraordinary changes; drastically reduced recovery times, injury reduction and increased performance.

Over time, Linda developed the circular TTouches and started to teach others in seminars and then via the Practitioner Training Programme.

There are now practitioners worldwide, including a strong (and growing) team here in the UK.

How can I help my animal ?
When you contact a Practitioner (or Practitioner in training - who is qualified to conduct one to one sessions), you can either;

Attend a one or two day workshop to learn how to do the TTouches (cost is usually about £40 for a day depending on the area). Look at the workshop listing at TTouch UK , at my workshops page at Animal Sense or,

Book a one-to-one session - addressing you & your animals individual needs. During a session a history is taken, the animal is assessed, practical work completed according to need and you will be taught how to do the TTouches so that you can continue between sessions.
