The overall aims of massage therapy are to increase circulation, induce relaxation, and promote healing.

​

It can benefit every dog in a variety of different ways. For example:

Anxiety relief for stress-prone dogs

Palliative (end of life) care for elder dogs

Rehabilitation for post-surgery or musculoskeletal conditions

Building muscle for competition dogs

Simple health check-ups for your beloved pets

​

Throughout a massage session, every dog is massaged, mobilised, stretched and given a simple health check. Gait assessments are also a necessity before every massage and post-session advice and stretches will be given for owners to work on between sessions. Laser therapy may also be used throughout massage sessions as and when required.

 

Further benefits that people aren't usually aware of include:

Enhancing lymphatic drainage

Removal of toxins

Adjusting tissue tension

Realigning muscle fibres

Releasing endorphins and enkephalins

Reducing pain perception 

Increasing range of motion

​

Current legislation states that veterinary permission is needed before any dog can receive massage treatment. Once this has been completed, a dog will then need an Initial Assessment before Follow-ups or Laser Therapy can be booked.
