Making dogs look, feel and move their very best.
Canine massage has the ability to facilitate healing within our pets. Bringing all body systems back into balance is when positive changes begin to take place. If your pet is dealing with painful muscles, achey joints, behavior issues or healing from a surgery, massage is the perfect proactive option to assist in a faster recovery. Here are some of the reasons pets come for massage:
Canine Massage… What is it?
Massage is touch with intent. Various techniques, pressure and movements are used to manipulate every tissue in the body. Massage can include scanning and palpating adipose tissue, ligaments, tendons, connective tissue, some visceral work and of course muscles. Often times I include stretching and passive range of motion for joint mobilization.
Massage is actually very natural and instinctual. Just think, what do you do when you stub your toe? You probably grab it or rub it to soothe it! Dogs do the same. They will lick an area of soreness. Many mammals hold or groom their offspring, especially during development. Trust is one of the most powerful outcomes of touch. Click here to view my video showcasing more about massage!
