Student Reviews
I really enjoyed learning about pet/dog massage and how we can better relate to our furry friends. In addition, I would like to say that being in an environment (work in sports facility) it is really fascinating to learn more about energy work. It will also come in useful to our own pets.- Charlotte, CA
The course was thorough, and informative I really enjoyed participating.- Carole A. Eastwood CLMT
I knew the connection with my own dog was strong, but through this course I was able to deepen my understanding of her and myself and connect on levels I never thought possible. A wondrous side effect has been an understanding of energy work and energy systems in general that previously was only conceptual. My work with humans has deepened and my work with dogs has only just begun. My deepest gratitude to the author and Health Positive!.- Beverly J. Sparks, CMT
