I Live just outside Sadberge, Darlington, with our 4 horses, cat and usually more than one dog. (We foster for the Dogs Trust rehoming centre at Darlington).
​
I have been a qualified Energy Healer for 20 years and an Equine Acupressure Practitioner (Certified with Animalacupressure.com) and Equine Muscle Management (Certified with EMM/HMM The Rochford Method) for 12. I retired from my full time employment about 15 years ago, and since then spend my time caring for the equine, canine, feline and human family, teaching Tai Chi and providing Healing and Acupressure services to those in need.
About Acupressure
Acupressure is basically acupuncture without the needles!
​
It is a safe, and effective therapy which has been tried and tested over thousands of years in the east, and is gradually becoming more widely known and used in the west.
Many doctors and some vets now offer acupuncture as an adjunct to their services.
​
Traditional Chinese Medicine recognises that there are energy channels running through the tissues, linking all parts of the body together. Any issues affecting these channels, that are not resolved, can impact on physical and emotional wellbeing, and dis-ease develops, either chronic or acute, depending on the severity of the impact, and the length of time it has been allowed to remain un addressed.
​
The practitioner looks for signs of imbalance revealed on the body or in the behaviour, and seeks to correct any issues before the problem progresses to something more serious. If there are already problems, the practitioner seeks to find the root cause and release any impairment in the channel activity by gentle pressure and release of the relevant 'acupoints', thereby bringing balance and returning the animal to health.
