Animal Acupuncture and Massage Certificate
We have been offering Acupuncture and Shiatsu for animals training since 2001.
Animals respond very quickly to a healing touch and Shiatsu is ideal for this.The application of gentle yet firm pressure results in very relaxed animals.Training is conducted on horses .
Acupuncture can be applied to most animals without causing any discomfort.The results are truly amazing.
There are meridian charts for all animals as the Chinese have been using acupuncture and massage on their animals for thousands of years.
Therapeutic Laser use is also taught in the course for needle shy animals.
The entire course can now be completed via distance learning.
A series of instructional videos accompany the extensive training notes for this course.
Video calls are arranged with the student at a suitable time to guide them with needling, diagnosis and all aspects of the accompanying theories of acupuncture.

Testimonials
I have enrolled in the animal acupuncture and massage course and have recently completed my first unit which is Dry Needling.
The face to face online sessions with Tom were so enjoyable and he was very patient and informative, providing me with numerous insights and helpful hints for needling.
Just last week I did a practice session with a greyhound that has had her hip ball and socket removed. The needle locations that Tom suggested worked their magic and not only did she fall asleep, but her owner commented that her leg was looking longer and more relaxed when she walked on it.
Great course and I look forward to the further subjects.
