What Tools are in the Toolbox?
The Tellington Training Method (TTouch®) is a compassionate approach to the care and education of animal companions. It is a respectful method of working with animals that realizes their intelligence and recognizes that they will learn more in the absence of fear or pain.
TTouch® enriches the lives of animals and their guardians through harmony, cooperation, and trust. The Tellington Training Method offers people positive, practical tools for developing a strong partnership with their animal companions, based on understanding and mutual respect instead of dominance.
Reiki (pronounced ray-key), comes from "rei" meaning spirit and "ki" meaning energy, usually referred to as universal life-force energy. Reiki is a non-invasive, Japanese modality that facilitates healing through energy and awareness, producing powerful results for the body, mind, and spirit. The energy can be passed either hands-on or from a distance. Reiki lends itself wonderfully to animals, especially those that are shy, fearful, or ill because you work within their comfort zone. Reiki can do no harm; the energy is guided to the source of the problem and works toward the highest good of the animal's being.
Nutrition is the key to good health. Everything about the body’s function starts in the gut. It is what you provide to the body, as life’s fuel, and how it processes what you give it that makes all the difference in how well you function. Genetics (your inherited characteristics) play a large part in how you thrive and defend against invaders. Did you know that the environment and our food sources (which are often modified and exposed to chemicals) affect our gene expression? This is called epigenetics. Let’s talk about how food and environmental factors can influence your companion animal!
It is a gift to be able to use essential oils in a mindful way for both ourselves and our animal companions. You must be educated in how you use them (understanding the application and ensuring the quality of the source) and they will serve you and your animals well. You can improve behavior, enhance wellness, and detoxify your home. Essential oils can provide support for anxiety relief and relaxation, simple first aid until you can get to your vet, flea and tick avoidance, motion sickness, and many other challenges.
Doga (doggie yoga), is an opportunity to improve the human-animal bond, while stretching, deep breathing, meditating, learning to balance and relax with your canine companion. Animals are already masters at this. We can learn a bit from them and have fun with them at the same time. N2paws offers Integrated Doga, where you will perform deep breathing and meditation, yoga/doga poses, and a little bit of TTouch. Check out one of our classes. We even offer yoga for kitties (Meowoga).

N2Paws is offering a new service called Alpha-Stim. It is a drug-free behavior and pain management treatment. The Alpha-Stim generates a unique, proprietary electrical waveform that allows the animal's cells to operate naturally by moving electrons throughout the animal's body at a variety of frequencies, collectively known as harmonic resonance. The Alpha-Stim can be used to treat acute, chronic, or post-operative pain as well as bring relief to animals that deal with anxiety issues.
A hands-on technique using specific pressures to release toxins that build up in the muscles and thus release tension in the body (from sore, stiff muscles). Massage improves circulation and boosts the immune system
N2paws supports dogs, cats, birds, and other small animals
(including rabbits, ferrets, reptiles, and more).
