”Back in the mid 90's, I purchased a book/tape program for working with pets called "The Tellington Touch" or T-touch. I thought it was a form of massage and I used it to tame my cat.

The creator of the program, Linda Tellington-Jones, trained with physicist Dr. Feldenkrais in the 70's and used his method to develop her own.

Anonymous:
“My brother-in-law has offered to pay all expenses for me to see an Ayurvedic Practitioner that he sees for treatment in New Jersey. I have seen one before here in my state. My viewpoint is that despite how ill I am, it would be putting my faith into Eastern Medicine, instead of in Jesus Christ, for my healing. Am I correct in my view? Would you explain further, and why it would be unwise to seek healing from this type of Practitioner?"
