IPTouch is one of the most amazing animal massage & care programs in the universe! IPTs non medical hands on animal communication techniques are a must for adopted & displaced animals, rescue sanctuaries, pet sitters, animal trainers, owners, groomers, canine & equine police, guide dogs & ponies, endurance & performing horses... IPTouch techniques like Elephant Hug, Animal Vibes, Tail Power, Growler, Snaking, Petters Press & many more 'touch' ALL species (except Jellyfish).

IPTouch Animal Massage & Care is for Dolphin, Bird, Snake, Horse...Animals we bring home become full fledged family members; our confidants, comrades, exercise and meditation partners. In turn we want a healthy, peaceful life for them just as we want for our children and ourselves. The goal of IPTouch Animal Care is to create the optimal health and strengthen the human-animal bond for overall happier, healthier animals. IPTouch Animal Massage can mentor the journey.

IPTouch Animal Massage & Care is recognized by countless Animal Shelters, Spirit Therapies NARHA Equine Rescue, Jungle Friends Monkey Rescue, Cheval Equine Show, Greyhound Rescue, Adam and Eve Burmese Pythons, Ferret Rescue, Feral Cat Rehabilitation, Parrot Rescue, Wallaby Rescue, Equine Rodeo, Dressage, Jumper and Endurance Specialists, & animal homes around the universe.

IPTouch is composed of 4 basic theories.

1. Permission' Approaches: The goal is to decrease tensions patterns (either emotional or physical) by activation of the parasympathetic relaxation response. These are a must for rescued pets & wildlife that are unsure of 'touch' and close communication with strangers.
2. 'Blocking' Approaches are for IPTouch consent activation. This is used to facilitate passive Positional Elongation (PE) & comfortable active body motion. These are for pets that are having postural tension patterns during both active & passive activities.
3. 'Gentling' Nutrition Approaches are for the improvement of soft tissue nutrition for healthy ACTIVE motion. This is VERY important for walks, play time, in and out of the car toleration, grooming needs, sporting events, as well as potty and sleep comfort.
4. IPTouch Positional Elongation Specials are GOALS within IPTouch recipes for active self stretching & physical elongation such as wing flapping, tail wagging, head shaking...

Once core IPT approaches have been mastered enjoy specialized certification areas with 'IPTouch in MOTION'.

IPTouch Animal Massage & Care Is For Every Animal in the Universe.

Young: Bonding is the FIRST step to 'training' cooperation. LOVE will create attention goals that LAST and your pet will readily respond to you and visa versa! 

Elderly: Healthy movement, balance, joint lubrication, bathroom habits and eating desires are NEEDED for animal health. IPT can help.

Adopted: Oh Yes! Bonding, sharing new kindness memories & respect, adopted animals will know IPTouch and a human's LOVE! 

Athletes: Research shows active pets have a higher probability of physical dis-ease & general discomfort as they age. IPT can comfort this natural process.
 
Displaced Pets & Wildlife: Activation of the bonding mechanism will allow rescuers to assess and handle these creatures as they prepare to send them back to their original homes if appropriate; If not, captivity will be a welcome venue with IPTouch.

Rainbow Bridge preparation: IPTouch will share the continuation of your love & your connection together, as your pet transitions over the RB...a part of life.

Humans: Respecting other life forms through IPT Will make you a better person. I PROMISE!

Amy Herzlich is the founder, mentor & animal spirit believer of the IPTouch ANIMAL Massage & Care approaches. She is an NCBTMB massage therapist member & Nevada state licensed PTA for over 25 years. She is now retired from her human practice with the Las Vegas Cirque Du Soleil shows in Physio after 12 years; As well as caring for Adam & Eve (Burmese Pythons) of Zumanity, & supervising the IPT Equine team for Cheval. Amy is now ready to spend all of her time educating pet owners, caretakers & sanctuaries the world of IPTouch Animal Massage & Care handling, bodywork & training communication.

She has spent over 30 years rescuing and handling displaced dogs, feral cats, cows & goats, racing horses; As well as wildlife from Macaw parrots, Burmese pythons, monkeys, dolphins & more. As she became more in tune with these creatures she became aware of very specific 'TOUCH' approaches that created animal permission, tension releasing wellbeing, communication & bonded mutual respect. IPTouch Animal Massage was born.

Her advanced animal massage & care explorations include
Animal Science ( Pennsylvania), Canine & Equine Anatomy & Biomechanics, Ingram Myofascial VOM, Mirage Hands-on Dolphin Training, John Barnes Equine Myofascial Release, Small Animal Tellington Touch, Cheval's Equine IPTouch Team Leader, Zumanity's Snake Caretaker, Pet Tech First Aid Instructor, Dog Groomer, Small Animal Acupressure. However these programs still felt as if they were from a human perspective.

IPTouch was developed BY ANIMALS, FOR ANIMALS. Amy listened to what the ANIMALS guided her hands and heart to do. She then translated this information for the goal of "Spreading the IPTouch Word!"
