I am in the process of putting together a paper for a course I am taking and in doing so ran across this link which may be useful to the Animal Therapists on our forum.

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

TOUCH BALANCING/ANIMAL BOWEN MODULE ONE

Small Animal model: A Two Day, 14 hour course, designed to teach the concept of the technique, animal anatomy as applicable to the technique, and introduce application of the technique to release and balance muscle tension throughout the body. The impact of nutrition on health and as an important complement to the technique will also be addressed. You will be taught six procedures that address the axial spine, for releasing and balancing muscle tension from the coccyx through the temporo-mandibular joint. This course is also appropriate for the lay person interested in assisting his/her own animals. The procedures covered in this module will benefit young and competing or elderly animals with challenges. It is foundational for anyone using body work for animals and essential for those working with rescue and/or rehab animals. A full text is included. An introductory video/DVD, required for Module 1, is available for purchase.

This course is taught using the Small Animal model but is applicable for all animals.

An additional One Day, 7 hour unit based on the Equine model is available to follow immediately after, and in conjunction with, the two day Small Animal Module One at the location of the module, if there is sufficient interest.

MODULE ONE also available as a Two Day Equine model with an additional One Day Small Animal unit following immediately after.

TOUCH BALANCING/ANIMAL BOWEN MODULE TWO

Small Animal model: A Three Day, 20 hour course. This module includes a review of Module One, plus six additional procedures to address muscle tension in all four limbs, the pelvis and muscles associated with digestion and respiration. Designed to improve and build on skills learned in Module One, Module Two will enhance a body worker or veterinarian's practical understanding of animal anatomy and function.

This module is essential for anyone wanting to understand how inappropriate muscle tension affects the health, well-being, and temperament of animals. It is also appropriate for the lay person, particularly for those with competing and/or working animals, wishing to maintain soundness and suppleness in their animals.
