Treatment
The EMMETT Technique is a safe, simple to apply light touch body therapy created by Ross Emmett.
EMMETT Therapy acts by triggering a relaxation response in the soft tissues of the body, resulting in the feeling of improved comfort and well being.
It is based on the belief that the brain has the ability to self- evaluate and re-calibrate using sensory receptors within the body.
Using light pressure the Technique works on unique micro points within muscles and muscle groups.
The technique needs to be performed with the right pressure, in the correct direction and with precise timing to achieve the best outcome.
The EMMETT points are small sensory receptors that allow access to the brain via the therapists' touch. With the correct light touch the brain receives and evaluates this stimulus and initiates the relaxation response in the soft tissue.
There are receptor points all over the body so the therapist can target the specific area of concern. The response is often immediate. The pressure required is not heavy or painful.
The EMMETT therapists' approach is to apply acceptable pressure to create change. This may vary according to sensitivity if each individual.
The EMMETT Technique is an internationally recognised technique is taught and practiced in over 40 countries and is equally effective in both people and animals.EMMETT Therapy acts as a first aid to release muscle related issues using the application of light touch at specific points on the body relieving discomfort, creating postural changes and improving movement, flexibility and overall well-being.

Dogs can be treated in a seated position, standing or lying down.
It can be a standalone treatment or combined successfully with other techniques.
Sessions may last anywhere from 10 minutes to 30 minutes when the Emmett Technique is used alone and longer if combined with a relaxing massage or other modality.
Animals generally respond quickly and will indicate when they have had enough information. This prevents "overworking" of the dog and allows them to react simply and easily during the session.
