Healing Touch for Animals

Healing Touch for Animals is incorporated into every animal's wellness program at the sanctuary. What is it? From the website and brochure:

"Healing Touch for Animals® / Komitor Healing Method, Inc. (HTA/KHM) uses bio-field therapies – recognized by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) – to integrate, balance and clear the energy body. It works by releasing endorphins to establish a deeper relaxation and state of being, allowing the body to function at a greater level. By allowing muscles to relax, circulation is increased, sending more oxygen, nutrients, and hormones into the body to support healing...HTA/KHM Techniques work on all levels of the body: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. These techniques allow the animals to come into a deeper instinctual presence and knowing of their body."

It's a wonderful way for all of our residents to relax and work in to daily life here. I, along with Sandra, the sanctuary's Treasurer, were able to attend a Level 2 (of 4 levels) seminar at the beginning of May. We work in class with dogs on day 2, horses on day 3, starting every level with a lecture the first day. The photo above show how happy and relaxed one of the horses was by the end of the day; we saw a whole barn of performance horses snooze as feeding time rolled around at the end of the day!
