From the moment my hands touch a dog, something shifts. My own breathing begins to slow, and before long I notice the dog's breathing soften and deepen as well. Soon our breathing seems to find the same rhythm. Then I notice something else—the owner's breathing begins to slow too. The whole room settles into a sense of calm.

​

This is where my work begins.

​

Over many years, I have developed what I call my listening hands. Rather than trying to force change, I listen through touch. My hands perceive subtle changes in tissue texture, joint motion, fascial tension, and the body's natural rhythms that often go unnoticed. They guide me to the places that need the most attention.

​

This depth of listening allows me to identify and address restrictions that may be contributing to conditions such as cranial cruciate ligament injuries, luxating patellas, spinal conditions, neurological disorders, urinary incontinence, and other physical challenges. 

​

With a gentle, non-invasive touch, I work to restore healthy relationships between the body's structures so that movement becomes easier, communication throughout the nervous system is enhanced, circulation improves, and the body's natural healing processes are supported.

 

One of the greatest joys of this work is seeing not only the dog relax and become more comfortable, but watching the entire family breathe a little easier. There is something profoundly healing about seeing a beloved companion move with less pain, more confidence, and renewed vitality.

 

It is a privilege to support dogs and the people who love them, and I would be honored to be part of your dog's healing journey.
