Color Therapy

What is Color Light Therapy?

color therapy for petsColor Light therapy is a natural method to treat all organs, body systems and functions, as the body cells are sensitive to a particular resonance and – the reason why it is possible to support self-healing ability by using the proper frequency, color light, and apply it to the right point and /or area.

Other natural remedies that can be used and combined with Color Light and Reflex Therapy to maintain a good health state in dogs, cats and horses, are the following:

  • Homeopathy

  • Diet-therapy

  • Aromatherapy

  • Vitamins and minerals

  • Flower Essences

  • Natural Medicine

How does Color Light Therapy work?

Humans and animals absorb color not only through the eyes, but also through the skin. The body has several excellent operating energy transport systems that are connected to the main energy centers.

Through color light it is possible receive all the energy needed to maintain a healthy body, mind and soul.

Using the right color it can lift blockades, detox organs and tissue, add to or dispose of surpluses shortages, etc. It can also stimulate the mental balance and the hormone system properly.

This non-invasive treatment uses many wavelengths or colors of light.

Is Color Light Therapy safe for animals?

It is one of the safest treatments for animals when performed with the appropriate knowledge. In all of our treatment protocols we give exact instructions on how to use the Color Light, for example should you never shine the light directly into the animal´s eyes.

With Reflex therapy secondary effects can seldom be seen. In case they do appear, they are just normal reactions in the following 48 hours after the treatment. Other animals can be sleepy or lethargic for 24h after the treatment. These effects indicate that some physiological changes are taking place and often precede an improvement of the animal’s state.

How long does a Color Light Therapy treatment last and how often should it be performed?

The duration and frequency of the treatments depend on the animal’s state. The stimulation of acupuncture points and zones can last from 10 to 30 minutes. In a simple acute condition, it may be necessary just one session, and a more severe or chronic problem would require many treatments.

When multiple sessions are required, we generally start intensively with 1 to 3 sessions per week for 4 to 6 weeks.

A positive response can be seen after the first or third session. The highest evolution usually is seen between the 4th and 8th session, and the treatments will space out according to the improvements.

Cat giving dog a facial reflexology massage

Reflexology for Dogs This cat obviously does reflexology for dogs on a professional basis and earns its goodies by treating dogs who are in desperate need of a relaxing reflexology massage! No, seriously… animals know the benefits of physical touch and instictively press their paws into fellow pet´s bodies (and faces).

´Catient´ gets treament for cats by cat

Yet another cuteness-overflowing treatment for cats video of a cat therapist treating his ´catient´ (cat patient) … Does anybody else believe that the cat giving the massage knows exactly what it´s doing and that there´s a purpose behind this treatment? I´ve heard of a woman who helped people with a complementary therapy in her own home. She laid the visitor on a massage couch and waited for her cat to jump onto it, search for a place to lie on the person and when she sat down the owner knew where she had to treat the client. The cat instictively knew where the patient´s aliment resided and showed her human where to look for the issue. Funny enough, my cat Mango lay on my chest with his paws on my throat one morning when I woke up with a painful throat and swollen glands. He does like to lay on my chest but he never actually had put his paws on my neck before… I thanked him for the ‘treatment’ because even if he wasn’t healing me on purpose, it did feel like a nice and loving act… AND my throat was less painful in the end 🙂 (Sorry for […]

Cat and Dog Friendship

In this video you can see how a friendship between a cat and a dog is created – right from the beginning. A small red kitten meets a big brave Golden Retriever. The orphaned kitten Koda was drafted at the age of four weeks at the dog owners and was so small that he still fit in a hand. In addition to a loving rearing with the bottle it has immediately found a great friend, cuddly partner and protector in the Golden Retriever Keelo. While Koda preferred cuddling in the dog’s coat in the beginning, he soon started the first game of cavort experiments with him. Then they ate together, simultaneously cleaned and cuddled and played of course, like there’s no tomorrow. A dream team, these two! What a lovely story… We´d love to see more of those two. Wouldn´t you? Leave comment below. Here’s another felina-canine friendship: Reflexology for Dogs (by a cat)

How to choose dog and cat food

Healthy food that is also appropriate to the species requires a lot of knowledge, because the animal has to get all the nutrients needed for healthy growth and a life full of activity. The food must therefore contain an optimal mix of proteins, natural fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and trace elements. Differences in diet between dog and cat Dogs and cats are both carnivores and thus have very similar requirements for their food. The few differences are: • Cats have a higher protein requirement. They are extreme carnivores. • The dog has a better digestive system • Cats eat their food in a dry place and at rest; the food is thereby better crushed. Dogs wolf it down. • The esophagus of the cat has some narrow passages. Therefore, the cat may not eat large chunks at a time. • The cat needs taurine (= a breakdown product of the amino acids cysteine ​​and methionine). • Cats drink rather little and take the moisture rather on with food. That’s why dry food can be especially harmful. How should a healthy compound feed look like? Wet food high meat content of over 90% for good meat and offal no grain, no soy, […]

Dog paw care tips

Dog paw care tips Much movement outdoors is not only good for pet owners but for their four-legged companion as well: It toughens up and strengthens the immune system. When the biped are protected from coldness and ice by wearing big winter boots, dogs are barefooted even in winter. Now the paws are strained and need increased attention by the dog owner. Thawing salt outside in housing areas is unavoidable and attacks the bale enormously. Therefore it is recommendable to rinse off the paws with luke-warm water after every walk. To avoid the paws from getting rough and chapped, rub them with vaseline or deer-sebum after washing. Also marigold-, elderflower- and chamomile-salve as well as amber- or lavender oil are suitable for pad-care. Special caution with frozen water surfaces. Thin ice on puddles may break easily and the dog’s paw might get hurt by resulting sharp edges. If a cut just happened, apply poultices of comfrey, yarrow or chinese cress and marigold-douches and salve may help additionally. Do not take your quadruped ice skating: In the heat of the moment your dog can slip easily and may crick painfully. If your barking companion just twisted in the deep snow, external […]

The ear infection can also spread to the middle ear or inner ear. If the ear infection is chronic otitis media can occur. Very serious chronic ear infections can even cause incoordination and severe brain disorders. Certain breeds are known to be more likely to get ear infections. Important factors in the development of ear infections: • In dogs with drooping ears or ears that are almost fully covered by a lot of hair, the ears can not be well ventilated. That is why these animals have an increased chance of getting an ear infection. If you can remove the hair on a regular basis, you reduce this risk. • If your pet likes to swim, the ears are moist. A warm, moist ear is an ideal breeding ground for bacteria. In warm weather, the bacteria multiply faster. • An ear infection can also be caused by an injury to the outer ear. In the removal of hair or by cleaning the sensitive skin of the ear it may be damaged. Sometimes there is also an innocent […]

Cat cold treatment home

Cat cold treatment at home Cat flu is a viral disease that occurs pretty frequently. It is mainly seen in cats with a low natural resistance to this infection. If you want the disease to clear up in your cat, it is not enough just to fight the infection. Your vet will prescribe antibiotics for the treatment of this disease. Since your cat has a reduced resistance, the cat cold often comes back fast (shortly after the antibiotic has impacted). Antibiotics kill bacteria indiscriminately, both good and bad. The animal’s immune system is altered by antibiotic treatment forever. That’s why it is very important to combat not only the cat flu but the natural resistance (the immune system) should also be strengthened. Animals with a strong natural resistance are less susceptible to this virus. This is also seen in humans: when the natural resistance is low, they get a cold or flu easier. But most vets only fight the virus and do not follow the natural resistance. Stress and reduced resistance Cats are very sensitive to stress. If they are under stress, this has often a negative impact on the resistance. Stress occurs for example through a move, holidays, visit […]

Animal reflexology

Animal reflexology For all the internal organs of our body there are areas of skin that are connected to the organs by their own neural pathways, so-called reflex zones. With the help of animal reflexology we can achieve a positive effect on diseased organs and other affected parts of the body, massaging specific areas. This does not always have to be painful and can take place with little pressure, gentle brushing and pressing with the fingertips. With the help of acupuncture massage using a stick like the Thermie Roll the effect of animal reflexology may be intensified. Since the naturopathy in the animal field works just like for humans – the contrary, because the animals do not work with their “mind” against it – the effects are seen often quickly and clearly. Even restless animals go to sleep, yawn, stretch and deepen their breathing in a very short time. Diseases, pain and blocked energy in physical and mental areas can be identified and the healing is stimulated. In horses, dogs and cats the most effective reflexology areas are on the head, paws and ears. Only these parts of the body have nerve endings which are sufficiently pronounced. The brain and […]

As a result, they become a permanent companion for some animals. With partly life-threatening consequences. Because NSAIDs or NSAP have partly considerable side effects. Horse, dog and cat owners who have been haunted by the suffering of their pets are therefore often looking desperately for a way out and then try out phytotherapy (herbal medicine). But are plants actually a drug to fight pain and inflammation? Recently, I got an email from a dog owner. His favorite four-legged friend was suffering from various inflammatory and degenerative musculoskeletal disorders which were treated with painkillers for a long time, after which the animal had suffered a perforation.

Symptoms of diabetes in cats

Symptoms of diabetes in cats There are two types of diabetes In type 1 diabetes no insulin is produced because the insulin-producing cells are destroyed in the pancreas. Cats, however, are more affected by type 2 diabetes. In type 2 diabetes the insulin has lost its effectiveness because the cell does not react sensitively to the docking of insulin – you can also call it insulin resistance. In type 2 diabetes, the insulin production is often disturbed. Main features of both forms of disease is the permanent increase in blood sugar levels. In the beginning of the disease the symptoms of diabetes are usually poorly developed and are therefore easily overlooked. The cats drink more (polydipsia) and also excrete more water (polyuria). They can act tired. Striking might be the cravings – especially when they lose weight even though they eat a lot. But obesity can occur together with diabetes mellitus. Especially in cats, this is, however, likely to be a cause rather than a consequence of the hormonal disorder. Symptoms of diabetes in cats: Diabetes disrupts many body functions In addition, cats with diabetes often have a dull coat. In individual cases, hindleg weakness and exaggerated “square” (ataxic) movements. […]

Can Dogs Eat Bananas? 10 Toxic Foods, 23 Safe Ones & A Few in the Middle

You need to be careful with what you feed to your dogs. They can be very sensitive. They don’t have the same digestive system as human beings. You might think that they are tough enough as they can eat just about anything they see, but they are not. They are frail in so many ways. They have allergies too just like human beings. There are even foods that will automatically cause their organs to fail. Unless you can bring them to the vet as soon as the allergies start to kick in, they might die. This is something you want to avoid. Bananas are among the foods that we are not certain of when it comes to their safety for pets. You can relax now. Bananas are safe for dogs.
