TTouch™ - the
Tellington-TTouch - is a method based on circular movements of the fingers and hands all
over the body. 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.
The Tellington TTouch is a
specialized approach to the care and training of our animal companions. Developed by
internationally recognized animal expert, Linda Tellington-Jones, this method based on
cooperation and respect offers a positive approach to training, 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.
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 behaviours.
By using the 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 the
Tellington TTouch to assist with recovery from illness or injury, or just enhance the
quality of your animal's life.
The Tellington TTouch can help
in cases of:
· Excessive Barking & Chewing
· Leash Pulling
· Jumping Up
· Aggressive Behaviour
· Extreme Fear & Shyness
· Resistance to Grooming
· Excitability & Nervousness
· Car Sickness
This gentle method is
currently being used by animal owners, trainers, breeders, veterinarians, zoo personnel
and shelter workers in several countries. There are many certified practitioners teaching
TTouch around the world who can show you how to help your dog, cat or other pet. Please
