Muscle Testing
Muscle testing is also referred to as kinesiology. If you are going to work with animals in a holistic manner, learning this technique is vital to the health of the animal. Some animals are allergic to certain foods and products and this tool offers you the knowledge to determine what is best for an animal. This is such a valuable tool to have that Kim teaches basic kinesiology in all of her full and half day workshops. Click here to learn more about muscle testing.

Bach Flower Essences

Dr. Bach originally created them to help his clients but many animal communicators and holistic animal practitioners offer consultations. Click here to learn more about Bach flower essences.

Homeopathy
Homeopathy is used by holistic vets, homeopathic practitioners, and pet owners to help resolve health issues.
