Craniosacral Therapy For Animals Options

[Furkidlets' Mom]

For those of you who may not be aware of this other form of alternative therapy for our animal companions, this is a brief description of one such practitioner's Cranial Sacral modality and the types of conditions and circu*mstances in which it could be of benefit, including when they are injured, ill, traumatized or even while dying, as part of a hospice care plan.

I've had one session of Cranial Sacral therapy myself (won a draw for massage therapies) and absolutely loved it. Extremely relaxing and gentle, as promised, and even just one trtmnt. helped me feel a bit 'lighter'. (the bonus, too, was the practitioner's cat, the same size and shape as my Nissa!!, chose to lay right on top of me through my entire hour-long session, which only helped me relax even MORE!!! The woman's comment to this: "Well, I think you got as much healing from HER as from the Cranial Sacral!" I agreed wholeheartedly! ) Our local vet. had even suggested Cranial Sacral to me to try, many years previous, but I'd never gotten around to doing anything much for myself back then. Once I experienced it this much later, though, I wished I had.

As for the Reiki also mentioned on this webpage, I know that, too, is very welcomed by animals, as is the other form of healing work I now do myself (also had my Usui Reiki Level I prior to this and used it for Nissa every day). Just mentioning this so you'll all know I'm familiar with other types of healing work, too.

Conscious Crossings/ Pet Therapies
Not sure where these particular practitioners are, but both of these modalities have many practitioners in most places in N. America. It is important, however, for their Cranial Sacral training to have come out of the Upledger Insti*tute (the best training), as this woman's does, and also to make sure the practitioner for your FURCHILD has had further training or experience in using it for animals. Reiki, on the other paw, can more easily be transferable to any species, although it still helps if the practitioner either specializes in animal work, or at least has used it to a fair extent with animals before, just so they're aware of some of the different reactions &/or preferences of some species to Reiki energies.

One of the good things that came out of my trip to the vet's with Stephanie and Tris was, I met a 22 year old sheltie. His mother swears by Reiki for him.
and he was exceptionally spry.
