Heading 1 Aleo

BODY FONT: Assistant It’s getting to be a bit much with the dog content lately, what with the puppy birthday parties and vegan pet food. But let’s push the limit with this timely update on human-canine couples’ massages. This is a practice that’s taking off in very specific corners of the world, which is fine and great until you have to interview people about it. 

“Shared massage therapy would certainly enhance the human-animal bond,” Rover‘s vet told Glamour.

Heading 2 Aleo

A pet or companion animal is an animal kept primarily for a person’s company, protection, and/or entertainment rather than as a working animal, sport animal, livestock, or laboratory animal. Popular pets are often noted for their attractive appearances, and their loyal or playful personalities. Pets provide their owners (or guardians) physical and emotional benefits.

Heading 3 Aleo

Walking a dog can supply both the human and pet with exercise, fresh air, and social interaction. They can give companionship to elderly adults who do not have adequate social interaction with other people, as well as to other people who are living alone. There is a medically approved class of therapy animals, mostly dogs or cats, that are brought to visit confined humans, such as children in hospitals or elders in nursing homes.

Heading 4 Pompière

Pet therapy utilizes trained animals and handlers to achieve specific physical, social, cognitive, and emotional goals with patients. The most popular are likely dogs and cats but people also keep house rabbits, ferrets; rodents such as gerbils, hamsters, chinchillas, fancy rats, and guinea pigs; avian pets, such as canaries, parakeets, corvids, parrots, and chickens; reptile pets, such as turtles, lizards and snakes; aquatic pets, such as goldfish, tropical fish and frogs; and arthropod pets, such as tarantulas and hermit crabs.

Heading 5 Aleo

That’s because “we’re electromagnetic beings: everything we do involves energy,” explained a body worker who advocates vibe-sharing through touch between pet and owner. Stemming from a medical practice, the dual treatment is now available to anyone who wants it a day spa in Sydney and a house call service in Orange County. So, if you forgot to prepare a romantic dog dinner for tonight, it’s not too late! Surprise them with a relaxing rubdown today.

If you need individualized care and immediate responsiveness to your questions, needs, or treatment?? Dr K is worth every Penny. I was reticent to pay the money for specialized HRT but she is truly WONDERFUL and her team is right there when you need anything. I have been so impressed with this office and now I understand why her waiting list is so long. She is fantastic.

I was experiencing perimenopause symptoms for about 1.5 years and decided to do a consultation with Kaufman Health & Hormone Center to better understand how hormone replacement therapy may benefit me. I was very impressed with their thorough consultation and testing process and the detailed information Dr. Vanessa Fitzgerald provided about my specific body/test results, which she used to determined which hormone replacements and supplements would be most beneficial for me. I've been using HRT since September 2023 and have had very positive results including: improved sleep (no more waking up in the middle of the night), no more hot flashes, less brain fog, less irritability/mood swings, better gut health, and less vaginal dryness. Very happy I decided to give it a try!

I am proud to say I have been an established patient of Dr. Kaufman's for over a decade. Dr. Kaufman is an excellent listener and communicator. She is organized, conscientious, empathetic and makes me feel truly cared for. She is one of my greatest health advocates and has gone out of her way to be there for me. I will never forget the time I went on a trip to Asia in the middle of the hottest summer years ago and had the worst ever bacterial infection. Dr. Kaufman was on the phone with me multiple times at all hours assisting from another country when I could not get trusted health care in Bali. I trust Dr. Kaufman. There is reason she has a one year wait list, and well worth the wait indeed! Thank you, Dr. Kaufman! You are greatly appreciated by me as well as many others.

Dr. Kaufman is incredibly thorough and was extremely helpful. During our initial consultation I brought up some things that I've asked other doctors about and essentially walked away from those others with the conclusion that this is just something I'd have to live with for the rest of my life. Dr. Kaufman was able to address everything and I've seen improvements with everything I was concerned about... from major issues to minor ones. I can not believe how good I feel with her guidance and recommendations. Better then I ever thought I could. She is also such a caring and genuine woman whose bedside manner is impeccable. I felt heard and like my best interests were and still are at heart.

I cannot overstate the positive impact Karen Kaufman has had on my energy levels, my physical health and my overall well-being. She is very knowledgeable and has helped me address issues that I otherwise would have been resigned to write off as part of aging. She listens to patients with care and curiosity, which can be healing all in itself.

Dr. Kaufman understands the complexities we experience as women. I was feeling tired, restless and gaining unwanted weight. She helped get me back on track. So grateful for her compassion and care!

I have struggled with perimenopausal symptoms for about 5 years and Dr. Kaufman was able to identify the reasons behind my issues. I now feel in control of my progress. My moods, sleep and energy are more stable. I highly recommend Dr. Kaufman for hormonal and functional health.

I highly recommend Dr. Karen Kaufman. As a patient for several years I have been continuously impressed with her knowledge, not only with hormone balancing, but also functional medicine. She has helped me resolve issues other doctors were not able to figure out. I am incredible grateful to have been referred to Dr. Kaufman. She is truly the BEST!
