What
is T-Touch?
- Tellington
Touch (TTouch) is a specialized approach to the care and training of
our animal companions. TTouch helps to release tension and increase
body awareness. This allows the animal to be handled without provoking
typical fear responses. The animal can then more easily learn new and
more appropriate behaviors. By using a variety of other tools that also
assist the animal to experience a sense of confidence in previously
frightening situations, even the most difficult problems are often eliminated.
This gentle method is easy to learn and is currently being used by animal
owners, trainers, breeders, veterinarians, and shelter workers in several
countries.
- Developed
by internationally recognized animal expert, Linda Tellington-Jones,
this method offers a positive approach to training. Based on cooperation
and respect for our animal friends, these techniques promote optimal
health and behavior by eliminating fear and reactive responses.
- Using
a combination of specific touches, lifts, and movement exercises,
the TTouch work enables an animal to learn new behavior more easily.
Even the most difficult problems are often eliminated with just a few
sessions.
- You
can learn to apply the TTouch to eliminate inappropriate behaviors,
assist with recovery from illness or injury, or just enhance the quality
of your animal's life.
