Remedial Massage

Just like humans, dogs can suffer from muscle pain, stiffness, and tension that can affect their mobility and overall quality of life. Remedial massage therapy is designed to address these issues, providing relief, improving comfort, and enhancing your pet's well-being.

 

I am passionate about making a difference in dogs’ health and happiness. Whether your dog is in recovery, a senior, or simply in need of some TLC, I’m here to help them feel their best.

Who can remedial massage help?

Canine remedial massage can be beneficial for a wide range of dogs, including:

​​

  • Senior dogs:

    • Aging dogs commonly suffer from arthritis, joint stiffness, and general soreness. Massage can help alleviate these symptoms, providing comfort and improving mobility.​

  • Dogs recovering from surgery or injury:

    • Massage therapy supports rehabilitation by reducing muscle stiffness, improving circulation, and promoting relaxation, all of which can help speed up the recovery process.

  • Pets with chronic conditions:

    • Dogs with conditions like hip dysplasia or spinal problems can experience pain relief through targeted massage, allowing them to enjoy a better quality of life.

  • Sporting and working dogs:

    • Active dogs who participate in agility, obedience, or other physical activities often experience muscle strain and tension that can hinder their performance. Regular massage therapy helps them stay in top form.

  • Dogs with anxiety or behavioral issues:

    • Massage has a calming effect, which can be beneficial for dogs with anxiety or nervousness, helping them relax and feel more secure.
