#125 Distance animal healer/communicator and Bowen practitioner Barbara Ahern reveals her journey.

A work injury directed Barbara Ahern to the field of natural medicine. First, as a massage therapist, then a holistic spa technician, then a Bowen practitioner. She opened a massage school and contracted with her graduates for outcalls at B&B's as well as in her Sierra Spa and Wellness Retreat.  After working with people for 15 years, she discovered an 84% correlation of physiology between people and dogs, validating that natural medicine benefits the animals, too, so she started working with dogs. She designed a health and wellness program (Canine AcuTouch) that addresses their issues. When she injured her knee in 2024 and could not get down on the floor with the dogs she thought her career was over. When a friend said, "why not work  on the dogs remotely like you have worked on me remotely?" She tried it, and it worked! She also communicates with her canine clients, and her remote work has helped her canine clients as far away as England.
