BodyTalk Access for Animals and Humans

Course Overview:
Currently, the general approach to modern health care for animals and humans is undergoing a radical change. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the IBA’s BodyTalk for Animals program via the BodyTalk Access for Animals as well as BodyTalk Access for Humans course.

This course also teaches a four-step Fast Aid Procedure.

BodyTalk Access is not only a great set of techniques to help you support your animal companions, and your personal self-care, but it is an excellent health care tool that can be used with your human and animal family at home, at work and in your community.

Course Description: The six energy medicine techniques that make up the BodyTalk Access course include:
• Cortices (for animals and humans), to help improve right and left brain communication
• SB Junction (for animals), to relieve pressure from a potentially compromised Spheno-Basilar Junction in animals
• Switching (for humans), to help decrease stress
• Hydration (for animals and humans), to help the body utilize water more efficiently
• Body Chemistry (for animals and humans), to help balance the immune system
• Reciprocals (for animals and humans), to help re-establish integrity of the body’s structures, improve postural alignment; increase flexibility and circulation of fluids and energy.

You will learn these five basic BodyTalk Access for Animals and BodyTalk Access for Humans techniques that can be combined into a daily regimen which, when applied, has a significant impact on an animal and human’s health.

Fast Aid:
Fast Aid Protocol that can be used to support Standard First Aid procedures during emergencies to rapidly speed up the healing process and reduce shock.

We welcome you to bring an appropriate animal to this class.

This course begins with a power-point presentation and discussion of the theoretical aspects that support the concepts and techniques taught. You will be encouraged to share your own personal experience with animals and humans as a layperson and/or professional.

One full day of the course is dedicated to learning and practicing the practical
application of the techniques. During the practical application for the animals, you will learn how to utilize yourself, another human, or a stuffed toy as a surrogate for the animal as the BodyTalk System advocates a no-touch/non-invasive approach to support the heath and well being of your animal companions! The Access techniques for humans will be practiced on yourself, as well as another. The techniques and theories covered in BodyTalk Access for Animals and Humans can be applied to any animal or human.
