The third part of our vision:
You have joined us as a PetMassage_TM Licensed Instructor.

What’s involved in training?

The prerequisites for entering into the program for licensure are completion of the PetMassage_TM for Dogs Foundation Workshop and Advanced PetMassage_TM for Dogs Workshop. 

Foundation Refresher.  

For the first part of your Instructor Training, you take the Foundation hands-on workshop a second time. You’ll hear content you missed the first time around. You’ll also be observing how the PetMassage_TM workshop is managed, how information is revealed, and how students interpret what is taught.

Student teach.  

In the very next PetMassage_TM Foundation workshop that is offered at the Institute you will have the experience of co-leading the workshop, using PetMassage_TM techniques, standards, and practices. Your training includes content review, daily critique, and sharing of proprietary PetMassage_TM Instructor’s content.

That’s the training: after the Foundation and Advanced Workshops, you repeat the Foundation workshop and Co-teach a Foundation workshop. The instructor training is completed  within two or three months, depending on our workshop schedule.  Then, we work with you to develop your school. The track is fast and the cost to licensure is very reasonable.  If this resonates with you, call  or email for a prospectus

A’s Affirmation: I love being a great example for others to follow. 

Energy ball corrects imbalances 

In a recent email, I was asked about what I could suggest for a dog with sudden onset vestibular disease. The pet owner has been “searching for holds, pressure points, meridians, mudras” – anything that might assist in relieving her dog from this horrible condition. 

When I did an online search for this I was led to http://www.vcahospitals.com/main/pet-health-information/article/animal-health/vestibular-disease-in-dogs/856 

“What causes vestibular disease?

“Causes of vestibular disease include middle or inner ear infections, drugs that are toxic to the ear, trauma or injury, tumors and hypothyroidism. When no specific diagnosis is found, the condition will be called idiopathic vestibular syndrome. These cases are distinguished by the sudden onset of clinical signs and the subsequent rapid improvement with little, if any, medical intervention” 

So, I believe there is hope. 

From the way she phrased her question, I surmised that she knew how to make a radiant energy ball in her hands. You probably do, as well. The use of the energy ball can be effective over any area of imbalance. 

Create one of these balls and then hold your palms over your own ears to make sure that you are feeling heat. Then, bring your hands to the sensitive area. Pulse your hands slowly to the sides of the area and away from it. The variations of heat and energy from your palms may help initiate the restoration of balance within the connective tissues. If your dog becomes a little agitated while you are pulsing your hands, that’s okay. It just means that something is moving.
