Vanadium is a trace element that naturally occurs in various mineral forms and is used in different industrial applications. While vanadium is a micronutrient needed in small amounts, its excess can be harmful to animal health.

Where is Vanadium Found?
• Fossil Fuels: Vanadium is present in certain types of oil and coal, meaning that burning these fuels can release vanadium into the environment. 🏭
• Steel and Other Metal Alloys: Vanadium is added to steel to increase its hardness and strength, meaning it can be present in metal objects used in households.
• Supplements and Fertilizers: Vanadium can also be a component of animal supplements and fertilizers used in gardening. 🌱

Why Should You Be Cautious About Vanadium? Excessive exposure to vanadium can lead to health problems in animals, including:
• Metabolic Disorders: Vanadium can affect the normal functioning of glands and hormones.
• Lung and Respiratory Issues: Inhaling dust containing vanadium can lead to lung diseases. 😷
• Neurological Function Disorders: High concentrations of vanadium can affect the nervous system.

How to Protect Your Pet from Vanadium? Ensure to avoid excessive exposure to products and environments rich in vanadium. Regular THAA/EHAA tests can help monitor levels of vanadium and other heavy metals in your pet’s body, which is crucial for maintaining their health and well-being.
Take care of your pet’s by managing their environment and diet! 🐾

Never Forced

An important part of Animal Bowen Technique is recognising and respecting when the animal indicates it has received what it needs. Some dogs/cats can be a bit anxious initially, while most love it right away! All treatments are tailored to the pet’s needs and never rushed or forced on the animal. We go at their pace and are guided by their responses. In all situations, the animal is given free choice to say “no” to specific moves or to having Bowen at all and is not restricted in freedom to move at any time. Your pet will dictate the amount of ABT that he/she receives. Even after just a couple of moves your pet may indicate that this is all they need – their wishes are respected at all times. Just a couple of Bowen moves can have a profound effect the saying ‘less is more’ is often very true in relation to a ABT session.

Documented evidence! 😁

Bodywork such as Bowen Therapy can stimulate the release of hormones like serotonin and dopamine, which are associated with happiness and pleasure. This can lead to an improved mood and an overall sense of well-being.

This applies to our pets as well, and helps them be happier, calmer and healthier animals 💗🐶😻

🌟 Unveiling the Feline Trapezius Muscle: Anatomy, Healing, and More 🌟

The trapezius muscle in cats, often simply called the traps, plays a significant role in their movement and overall agility. Let's explore some fascinating details about this crucial muscle, its holistic significance, and how Bowen Therapy can help!

Anatomy and Physiology:
The trapezius muscle is located along the back and neck of cats. It consists of three parts:

Upper Trapezius: Elevates the shoulders.
Middle Trapezius: Retracts the shoulder blades.
Lower Trapezius: Depresses the shoulder blades.
Evolution of the Trapezius:
The trapezius muscle has evolved to support a cat's need for agility and strength, allowing them to climb, jump, and pounce with precision. Its robust structure helps cats maintain their graceful movements and quick reflexes.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Meridians:
In TCM, the trapezius region is associated with the Bladder Meridian (BL) and the Gallbladder Meridian (GB). These meridians are linked to the body's ability to process stress and emotions, and are crucial for overall well-being. 🌿🌀

Chakras:
The trapezius muscle is connected to the Throat Chakra (Vishuddha) and the Heart Chakra (Anahata). These chakras are vital for communication, expression, and emotional balance. A balanced trapezius can help your cat feel more secure and expressive. 🔵💚

Emotional Links:
Tension in the trapezius muscle can be linked to emotional stress and anxiety. Cats often hold tension here due to fear or feeling unsupported. Releasing this tension can help them feel more relaxed and confident. 😌💖

Bowen Therapy for Trapezius Issues:
Bowen Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive technique that can be highly effective for trapezius muscle problems. Here's how it helps:

Release Tension: Gentle moves over the muscle and connective tissue can relieve chronic tension and pain.
Improve Circulation: Stimulating blood flow aids in faster recovery from injuries.
Enhance Mobility: Targeted Bowen moves increase flexibility and movement.
Emotional Release: As physical tension releases, it can also facilitate the release of emotional stress stored in the muscle.

By addressing both the physical and emotional aspects, Bowen Therapy offers a holistic approach to healing and strengthening the trapezius muscle. 🌿✨

Strontium is a chemical element that naturally occurs in the Earth’s crust but is also found in various industrial products. While it is present in small amounts in living organisms, an excess of strontium can lead to health issues in pets.

Where is Strontium Found?
• Ceramic and Glass Products: Strontium is often used in the production of glass and ceramics.
• Dietary Supplements: Strontium can also be an ingredient in some dietary supplements, both for humans and animals.
• Metallurgical Industry: It is used in the production of certain alloys.

Why Should You Be Cautious About Strontium? Excessive exposure to strontium, especially through ingestion, can negatively affect bone density and muscle function in animals. Long-term exposure can lead to changes in calcium metabolism, which is particularly dangerous for young, growing animals.
Be cautious and monitor your pet’s environment to ensure their safety and health! 🐾

Going at their pace

Animals are much more in tune with their bodies than humans, and generally know for themselves when to “take a break”, and when to come back for more. Animals can initiate their own breaks by walking away or stretching before returning for more therapy. Often, after just a few moves, they will wander off and just stare blankly into space or go somewhere for a short lie-down. It is common for them to rest in-between moves during a session.

🐾Just like us, our dogs require a balanced diet rich in key elements to live long and healthy lives. Copper, iron, and manganese are just a few of the microelements that play a crucial role in maintaining their health at the highest level.

• Copper is essential for the proper functioning of the heart and blood vessels, it also supports the immune system and helps maintain healthy skin and fur.

• Iron is crucial for oxygen transport in the blood, preventing anemia, and supporting overall energy and vitality.

• Manganese participates in metabolic processes and helps maintain healthy bones and joints.

Deficiencies in these elements can accelerate aging processes and lead to health problems. To ensure your dog receives all the necessary ingredients, it’s worth regularly monitoring their levels.

We encourage you to perform a hair trace element analysis - a test that can help identify any deficiencies or excesses of micro and macro elements in your dog’s diet. With this, we can help you adjust your dog’s nutrition to his individual needs, ensuring a long and happy life.

The Breaks

The session is interspersed with breaks of around 2 minutes ⌛ or more, determined either by your pet🐶🐱 or by the practitioner. These pauses are vital to allow the body time to respond to the work and it also allows the animal to have a break and move around allowing the animal to avoid feeling trapped or overwhelmed with constant stimulus, and gives them an “out” if required, which is important for their first experience or if they are timid or nervous. It allows the brain 🧠 and nervous system to process, recalibrate and effect changes within the body and to give the animal time to process what is happening.

Have you ever wondered why your cat’s claws become brittle and fragile? The key could be sulfur – an essential component for maintaining healthy and strong claws. 🐾✨

Sulfur plays a crucial role in the production of keratin, the protein responsible for the durability of claws. A sulfur deficiency in your cat’s diet can lead to weakness, brittleness, and issues with proper nail growth. 🥦🍖

At PetsDiag, every detail matters when it comes to the health of your furry friend. That’s why their research focuses on providing solutions that help keep your cat’s claws in perfect condition. 🧪🔬

There is no hard manipulation, no pulling or cracking of joints, no insertion of needles, no massaging with oils. Pet Bowen therapy is non-invasive and does not require the use of drugs or harsh chemicals, making it an ideal option for pets that may be sensitive to other forms of treatment.

04/04/2024

Here are a few ways Bowen Therapy might contribute to enhanced range of motion:

👉🏻 Stimulating the Nervous System:
The gentle, precise movements of Bowen Therapy stimulate proprioceptors (sensory receptors) in the muscles and joints. This stimulation may help reset the nervous system and improve communication between the muscles and the brain. This improved communication may lead to better coordination and increased range of motion.

💪🏻 Reducing Muscle Tension:
The gentle rolling movements used in Bowen Therapy may help release tension in muscles. By targeting specific points on the body, the therapy aims to relax muscles and decrease hypertonicity. This may contribute to greater flexibility and improved range of motion.

🩸 Enhancing Blood Flow:
Improved circulation can promote healing and reduce inflammation. Bowen Therapy may have a positive impact on blood flow, potentially aiding in the removal of metabolic waste products and providing nutrients to the tissues. This may contribute to better tissue health and increased range of motion.

🕸️ Facilitating Fascial Release:
Bowen Therapy involves movements that target the fascia, a connective tissue that surrounds muscles and organs. By gently manipulating the fascia, the therapy may help release restrictions and adhesions, allowing for smoother movement and improved range of motion.

😌 Encouraging the Relaxation Response:
Bowen Therapy is designed to induce a state of deep relaxation. When the body is in a relaxed state, muscle tension tends to decrease. This relaxation response may contribute to increased flexibility and improved range of motion.

26/03/2024

When I feel your pet is happy for things to proceed, I will apply the Animal Bowen Therapy, a gentle rolling type motion, using fingers and thumbs on precise points on the animal’s body. This is done slowly and with gentle pressure, which will disturb the underlying tissue and create a focus for the brain to work on. Although it may not look like I am doing anything, the effects of the gentle rolling motion are extremely powerful. Throughout the treatment, I will always be observing your pet’s reaction.

🐾 Is your cat seeming less energetic lately? Have you noticed signs of apathy or weakness? The cause could be an iron deficiency – a key component that has a direct impact on the health and well-being of your furry friend. 🐱💤

Iron plays a crucial role in the production of hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body and supports energy metabolism. Without enough iron, your cat may experience fatigue, weakness, and lack of energy because its cells are not receiving enough oxygen. 🍃💨

Iron deficiencies can lead to anemia, a condition characterized by a low level of red blood cells, which further exacerbates feelings of tiredness and apathy. That’s why it’s so important to ensure your cat has a diet rich in iron or appropriate supplementation.🥩🥦

Don’t wait until symptoms become visible! Prevention is key to maintaining your cat’s health! Thanks to Petsdiag's specialized hair analysis, we can quickly and accurately diagnose the level of iron and other key elements in your cat’s body. This allows for a quick response and adjustment of diet or supplementation to restore full health and energy.

Once the assessment has been completed, I generally have a good idea of where to start with their treatment. We can discuss as I go, however its often better if there is quiet, so that your pet can focus on what is going on in their body and not be distracted. We can always chat through any questions you might have at the end of the session.

Calcium is a key mineral component essential for the proper growth and development of puppies. An adequate amount of calcium in the diet of a young dog is crucial for building strong bones, healthy teeth, and for the proper functioning of muscles and the nervous system. However, it’s important to remember that magnesium is just as important as calcium – a mineral that supports the absorption and metabolism of calcium in the body, and also plays a key role in maintaining health and electrolyte balance.

🐶A calcium deficiency in a puppy’s diet can lead to a range of health problems, including:

• Bone Growth Disorders – Weak and brittle bones, increasing the risk of fractures.
• Tooth Loss – Premature tooth loss caused by a lack of calcium, necessary for building strong teeth.
• Rickets – Soft and deformed bones resulting from a deficiency of calcium, phosphorus, or vitamin D.
• Hypocalcemia – Low levels of calcium in the blood, leading to neurological and muscular disorders.

If you are feeding your pet a nutritious diet, are not feeding them harmful human foods, but still think their health isn't optimal, why not do a hair sample analysis. The team at Petsdiag can let you know if there are harmful levels of heavy metals within your pets system, as well as if there are any vitamins or minerals that are deficient or in excess, so you can tailor their diet accordingly.

An animal nutrionalist from Petsdaig can also advise you on what to feed your pet based on the test findings.

Human Foods Dogs Can't Eat

Check out this list of the most poisonous foods for dogs and be sure you keep them far away from your pup's curious snout!

1. Chocolate and cocoa. Just one bite can cause a dog to vomit or have diarrhea. It can also cause abnormal heart rhythm, tremors, seizures and death.

2. Grapes. Grapes are known to cause kidney disease in most breeds.

3. Avocados. Contains persin, which is known to give dogs vomiting and diarrhea.

4. Onions and garlic. Large volumes of these vegetables and herbs can cause gastrointestinal irritation and red blood cell damage, which can lead to anemia.

5. Alcohol. Feeding your pet beer or wine isn't funny, it could be deadly. Just a drop can lead to vomiting, diarrhea, central nervous system depression, difficulty breathing and even death.

6. Milk and dairy products. Just one slice of cheese won't kill your pet, but excessive dairy will likely negatively disrupt their digestive system, since dogs don't have as much of the lactose breaking enzyme that humans do.

7. Coffee. Just a sip of coffee or caffeine can lead to restlessness, heart palpitations and bleeding, while a large dosage can be fatal.

8. Gum. Xylitol, or the sweetener found in gum and candy, can lead to liver failure and hypoglycemia. In addition, a dog's digestive system cannot break down gum the way humans do and the sticky substance can block up their system, which can quickly lead to death.

Remember that you are responsible for the health and safety of your pet. Forward this information to all owners of dogs
