As our four legged friends get older, they slow down and have less mobility, their joints can become inflamed and painful. A young dog may have overextended and sustained an injury through running/jumping. Soft tissue neck and back pain can be found to exacerbate anxiety/reactivity in dogs. WEBB encourages healthy movement of not only the body’s structure but healthy movement of the energy as well.
Whole Energy Body Balance is a healing somatic bodywork method that can help in all of these conditions; easing acute/chronic pain, trauma, regulate the nervous system and balance the energy system, creating better connection/communication for a healthier, happier pet. WEBB can be used in conjunction with Reiki, another healing modality that also works on improving the flow of energy around the body. It aids relaxation, reduces stress and promotes healing.
Both methods have been transformational with not only Nicola’s own dogs but also for her client’s pets.

WEBB Case Study:
My own dog Scamp, a playful and confident boy who grew up in a loving home with his mum, Missy. He was always full of energy and curiosity, but when his brother came to stay for three years—shortly after the arrival of my grandson—The combination of these changes overwhelmed him. Scamp experienced deep emotional distress. He suffered extreme bouts of anxiety, struggling to find his place within the new dymanic.
Symptoms & Observations
Signs of Distress:
🔸 Premature greying almost overnight
🔸 Loss of thick, wavy fur—became thin and dull
🔸 Increased stress, insecurity, and occasional aggressive outbursts
Through Whole Energy Body Balance Therapy, Reiki, and Homeopathy, I worked to help Scamp regain his sense of peace and well-being.
Session Highlights:
✨ Session 1: Scamp resisted at first—he was restless, jumping, and playing to avoid the work. With patience, I introduced Loving Touch and Somatic Relaxation Therapy, and he finally yawned and relaxed deeply. He slept soundly after.
✨ Session 2: A major shift! Scamp allowed an assessment without resistance. His body relaxed more deeply with each technique, releasing tension in his spine, limbs, and jaw. He yawned, twitched, and leaned into the healing work.
✨ Session 3: A turning point. Scamp completely relaxed, allowing deeper techniques without resistance. His spine felt much looser, and he slept deeply afterward—clear signs of deep healing.
I continued the sessions over a period of time, adding Reiki and Homeopathic remedies to give his vitality an extra boast.
The Outcome?
✅ His coat regained volume, thickness, and wave (though still grey, which is expected at 11 years old).
✅ His vitality and confidence returned—he seemed more balanced and secure.
✅ A defining moment: I looked into his eyes and said, “There you are.” He looked back as if to say, “I’m back.” ❤️
Scamp’s journey is a powerful reminder of how an integrative approach can transform a pet’s well-being. If your pet is showing signs of distress—whether emotional or physical—gentle, holistic therapies can make a world of difference.
