How BodyTalk Helps Our Animal Friends Heal

It surprises many people to learn that BodyTalk isn't just for humans—it can be life-changing for our animals too.

Just like us, animals experience stress, emotional overwhelm, and energetic imbalances. The only difference? They can't always tell us what's wrong… at least, not in words.

But their bodies—and their behavior—speak volumes.

How BodyTalk Supports Animals

Our animal companions, whether they're pets or part of a herd, are deeply affected by the environments they live in. Domesticated animals, especially, often take on the stress of their human families.

With BodyTalk, we can gently balance their mind-body energy, helping to relieve emotional distress, physical symptoms, and even challenges in their relationships—with other animals, family members, or the environment itself.

And it isn’t just for pets curled up on our couches. Wildlife and herd animals can also benefit from BodyTalk, as the stressors of life—even in nature—can impact their health and well-being.

Real-Life Animal Success Stories

Over the years, I’ve seen remarkable results when we give animals the chance to tell their story through BodyTalk:

✨ Puppy Brought Back to Life: During a difficult delivery, a Cocker Spaniel mom struggled, but after BodyTalk, she delivered quicker, easier, and became the devoted mom her puppies needed. One rare, expensive silver buff puppy was even born lifeless, still in the sack. But with gentle Cortices and BodyTalk techniques, that tiny pup came back to life.

✨ A Calmer Gelding: In one herd, a particularly unruly gelding just couldn’t seem to fit in. After BodyTalk sessions, his behavior and relationships with the herd improved—creating more harmony for everyone.

✨ Breathing Easier—For Dog and Owner: A Great Pyrenees struggling to breathe mirrored the respiratory issues of his owner. After two BodyTalk sessions, an animal communicator shared that the dog expressed, “Ellen is helping me, and I love Ellen.” Both human and dog found relief.

These are just a few examples of how powerful this work can be—when we listen.

What Pet Owners Should Know

Most of the time, I don’t work directly on the animal—especially with nervous or sensitive pets. Instead, I use the owner, or a surrogate, as a proxy, allowing me to safely and gently access the animal's energy system.

The results often show up quickly. You might notice your animal eating, urinating, or defecating soon after a session as their body processes the energetic shifts.

It's also common for our animals to reflect family dynamics—meaning sometimes, when we work on the animal, we're also working on the household as a whole.

Your Animal Deserves to Feel Their Best

Our animal companions give us unconditional love. BodyTalk gives them the support they deserve in return.

When we bring balance to their bodies and minds, we give them the gift of peace, comfort, and vibrant health.

If your animal is struggling, or if you'd simply like to support their overall wellness, BodyTalk can help. Want to Learn More?
