My Connection to Animals
I grew up on a farm in northern Illinois and my family trained and showed Quarter Horses. I was very active in 4-H and participated in both the equine and canine project areas. My children were also actively involved in 4-H showing dogs and rabbits. My daughter and I raised Mini Rex rabbits and were able to travel throughout the US showing them.
I originally studied massage therapy in 2005, but unexpected family matters required me to withdraw from the program prior to completing my final semester. In the fall of 2007, a friend in Maryland mentioned she was studying animal massage and I knew immediately that it was something I was supposed to do. I was very comfortable taking a correspondence course as I had studied anatomy & physiology, kinesiology, and massage therapy technique while I was in school. I also had more than 40 years’ experience working with a variety of large and small animals.
The PetMassage™ certification program almost seamlessly integrated my life-long experience with animals, a holistic approach to wellness, and my previous massage therapy coursework. I fulfilled my practicum hours (plus an additional 8-10 hours) by working with a well-respected breeder of field trial dogs and a rescue foster home, in addition to working on animals belonging to friends, family, and myself. After receiving my certification, I provided services at local dog agility trials and worked with a local dog trainer providing hydrotherapy. In the past 10 or so years, I’ve worked mostly on the pets of friends and family.
I have always incorporated energy healing with my PetMassage work and when I learned Emotion Code in 2014, I was able to take energy healing to a whole new level. These integrated sessions provided powerful, profound results (often in a matter of minutes or hours).
Animal massage and Emotion Code have allowed me to take my passion for animals and provide a beneficial service for them and their owners. I am able to help caregivers improve the health, happiness, well-being, and performance of the animals in their care. I am very excited about the future of animal massage, and I’m looking forward to helping people discover how to enhance the lives of the animals around them.
