A Holistic Guide

First Zoom Session: one hour

Introduction

This course will help anyone whose dog is getting older or anyone whose dog is getting over an injury.

I will mainly be talking about the older dog that might be experiencing discomfort because of an old injury, surgery, a condition he/she was born with or general wear and tear of the joints, and how Galen Myotherapy could make a difference to your dog’s life.  

Galen Myotherapy

• Principles behind Galen      Myotherapy
• Indications and Contraindications

Second Zoom Session: one hour

The muscular system & how your dog moves

Third  Zoom Session: one hour

Observing & being present is key

Now you have had a week to observe your own dog!

The dog will give you many signs on a daily basis that all is not all that great in their world. The signs are usually very subtle and could easily be missed. 

You will be given two tables with a list of physical and behavioural signs your dog is most likely to exhibit if in any discomfort. During the second session we will go through these in more detail, the aim being to help you understand them.

Fourth Zoom Session: one hour

Galen Myotherapy: your techniques, your tools!

• The dog’s body language:      The “I so enjoy the session” signs and the “Please take your hands off me”  signs! 
• The techniques you could  easily apply on your dog as part of a daily routine. You could either have your dog present  while you practice or borrow a cuddly toy or have a cushion! Cushions/cuddly toy are usually more reliable than dogs in this scenario!
