Holistic Animal Health

Donna Timmerman is a consultant in behavior and health issues for companion animals and horses.  She works with you and your veterinarian to promote the physical and emotional health of your animal family members.

In 1996 she graduated from the first Tellington Animal Companion Training (TACT) certification program in the U.S. and Canada.  This program teaches TTouch for small companion animals, such as dogs, cats, bunnies, and guinea pigs.  She fine-tuned her skills to complement veterinary techniques by volunteering for a year at a veterinary clinic.  After determining which specific TTouches your animal needs, she teaches you these movements.  With these techniques, you will deepen the bond between you and your companion while improving and maintaining the animal's health and vitality.

She is also certified in Photonic Therapy, a non-invasive holistic technique using light instead of needles to stimulate recognized acupuncture points. This work, also known as The McClaren Method, is becoming increasingly popular with enthusiasts of natural horsemanship.  Combining Photonic Therapy skills and her knowledge of animal acupressure, she shows you key acupuncture points you can use to support your animal in self-healing and in day-to-day maintenance.

Donna integrates TTouch and Photonic Therapy with Natural Force Healing, Therapeutic Touch, Healing Touch, and Quantum Touch in her sessions.  This energy work can enhance an animal's overall health, emotional stability and comfort in these general ways:
   ●   Strengthen the immune system
   ●   Relieve muscle spasms
   ●   Release endorphins necessary to reduce pain
   ●   Release natural cortisone to reduce swelling
   ●   Enhance mental clarity required for focus in training and
        performance
   ●   Speed healing of injuries by removing toxins and increasing
        blood supply
   ●   Release blocked emotions, memories and belief systems by
        balancing the chi and opening chakras
   ●   Increase self esteem, self awareness and the ability to
        connect to others by clearing negative thoughts and emotions
        with acceptance and love

Her private practice has included dogs, cats, horses, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, iguanas, birds, hamsters, snakes and her specialty, bunnies.

She is a member of the International Alliance of Animal Therapists and Healers, IAATH, an international organization committed to the continuing development of education, communication, support and opportunities for all those interested in animal health care.

In October, 2004, she moved from Sammamish, Washington, to Sisters, Oregon.  If you are in the Seattle, Washington, area, please check the Other Practitioners page to see her recommendations for practitioners in your location.
