This easy to follow illustrated guide demonstrates proven techniques to promote harmony, balance, and wellness in your companion animals. Rooted in Oriental medicine and sound healing principles, Acutonics is a unique energy balancing system which incorporates the use of tuning forks on or over acupuncture points and chakras. Photos, illustrations, point descriptions, and an in-depth exploration of the use and application of sound vibration to the rarely explored and profoundly effective eight extraordinary meridians makes this a valuable resource for professionals and lay people. Enhance the natural resonance that exists between animals and humans through this powerful non-invasive modality. As we come to appreciate animals as living voices, co-healers of self and the universe, we gratefully embrace pain-free, love-based healing systems. The Pontons have brought us Acutonics For Dogs and Cats, a beautiful book that provides deep understanding into the nature of healing through universal sound frequencies. Animals love this work and so will you! --Dr. Julie Kaufman, DC, CAC Acutonics for Dogs & Cats offers a thorough review of the foundational principles of Acutonics combined with profound insight, specific information, and practical techniques for applying this extraordinary system of healing in working with our beloved animal companions. As a holistic veterinarian, Asian bodywork therapist, energy healer, and practitioner of Acutonics in both animals and people, I have found Acutonics to be a rich and powerful method of healing. Animals resistant to acupuncture are often receptive to the soothing vibrations of tuning forks. I am thrilled to now have a resource to recommend to clients! The authors approach the subject with true appreciation, respect, and understanding for the sensitivity of animals. I highly recommend this book to all professionals and laypersons who value the health and well being of our animal friends. --Melinda Franceschini, DVM, PhD, Dipl. ABT The good people of Acutonics continue to set a gold standard for innovative sound healing techniques. I am delighted to see the use of vibrational medicine available to our beloved animal companions. The human soundscape is harsh on us all, especially our 4-leggeds. Acutonics for Dogs and Cats is timely, well-written, beautifully illustrated, and a welcome addition to the growing awareness of how sound can be of positive, or negative, effect on all our nervous systems. Acutonics for Dogs and Cats brings forward, in an easily accessible fashion, the positive use of sound frequencies. --Joshua Leeds Judith Ponton, DC, LAC and Paul Ponton, MAc, LAc.
