T Touch massage for dogs

Has anyone used Tellington t touch massage for their dogs ?
There are a few seminars in my area and I am considering
signing up.
It is a method to improve positive bonding and communication
between you and your dog. It is often used along with obedience
and conformation/handling classes.

The technique is helpful with both behavior and medical issues.

It was first developed for use with horses, as the Tellington touch
method.

Thank you so much Zahra! :wink:
Also, this month's Dog Fancy has an article on dog massages.
I do reflexology for people and know how effective touch can be. Just got the Tellington video from our library. It is titled A T Touch of M.A.G.I.C. for... Dogs & puppies. Looking forward to using this method with our new pup.
Does anyone know if/how massage could benefit an 8 y/o with cancer? I have been interested in this subject but don't really know anything about it.

Zahra-Thanks for the links :D
I saw this lady on Animal Planet, I think?, doing the T-touch on different animals. She used it on a killer whale, tigers & lions in a zoo, etc.. Pretty interesting show, and the T-touch looked neat.
