People and dogs get along so well because dogs like to be touched and humans find solace in touching another being. Touching a dog reduces tension and awakens joy and caring in people who are immersed in grief or depression, debilitated by age or disease, or handicapped by physical or emotional limitations. Touching a dog helps us think, put things in perspective, and wile away a bit of free time here and there.

The Tellington-Touch - is a method based on circular movements of the fingers and hands all over the body. The intent is to activate the function of the cells and the nervous system.
TTouches help to release tension and increase the dogs own body awareness. This allows the animal to be handled without provoking typical fear responses. By using the TTouches you can assist the dog in experiencing self-confidence in previously frightening situations. Even the most difficult behavior problems are often eliminated.
The TTouches give the dog a new body experience, releasing old pains and unproductive behavior patterns. Health problems are addressed by stimulating the immune system. The TTouch often works within a short period of time.
TTouch creates a relationship with your dog based on trust and cooperation, instead of dominance. This new relationship, leads to more effective learning, higher self-esteem, comfort and happiness with your dog.
It also helps establish a deeper rapport between humans and dogs through increased understanding and more effective communication.
