Lot 22 - Animal Kinesiology Balance - A powerful energy balance for owner & dog: Value £60.00
Collette Jacobs - Hounds n Harmony
Animal Kinesiology uses muscle testing and biofeedback to identify where stress is being held in the body, and the nature of that stress.
My particular area of focus during a consultation will be on the emotions of the animal that are compounding physical or behavioural problems. Whilst muscle testing is a great diagnostic tool, it is impossible to test directly onto an animal, as they move around too much. Therefore I use the owner as a surrogate and work with the dogs energy, which give us a valuable insight into their fears, phobias and any past and unprocessed trauma.
Once we have identify any stresses or energy blocks, we carry out the relevant corrections, which allows for healing and growth. This is truly a very powerful treatment for both dog and owner.
