If you are an animal lover, you want the best for your dog. Massage is
a powerful tool to improve the physical, emotional, and mental health
of your dog. Dogs naturally seek, and readily accept, the power of
touch for healing and comfort.
Do you want your dog to feel and look better? Massage increases
blood and lymph fluid circulation in the body, aiding in the elimination
of toxins, boosting the immune system, speeding up metabolism, and
beautifying the coat and skin. Your dog will be rejuvenated by a
bodywork session.
Massage reduces pain and soreness, relieves tension, improves
structural balance, increases flexibility and shortens recuperation
times.

Massage relieves stress and anxiety and can lead to an improved emotional outlook for your dog. I am
experienced at massaging dogs in a shelter environment, and have seen remarkable results in bringing
them calm and comfort.
Massage is a complement to veterinary care, not a substitute for it. When your dog is ill or injured, I
encourage you to consult your medical practitioner.
Each massage is tailored to your dog's specific needs. Before I begin, we will discuss your dog's health
history and I will observe your dog's movements (gait), eyes, gums, coat, and skin. My approach will include
elements of Swedish therapeutic massage, T Touch, and/or acupressure depending on what your dog
needs and responds best to. I may also utilize energy work, flower essences, and aromatherapy.
Massage is life enhancing for almost all dogs, but there are some special circumstances that particularly call
for the intervention and assistance provided by bodwork.
Senior Dogs: Massage helps elderly and convalescing animals, especially those suffering from impaired
heart or kidney function. Arthritis, early morning stiffness, muscle cramps and some skin conditions will
improve with regular massage. Massage is an important stimulant for dogs that no longer exercise as
actively as they once did.
Large Breed Puppies: Growing bones receive vital nutrients through blood circulation, which massage
improves. Large breed puppies benefit from attention to limbs in which joints are extended and flexed since
limbs grow at the ends near the joints. Fast growing breeds are prone to sprains and strains and massage
will accelerate the rate of healing and help alleviate 'growing pains'.
Performance Dogs (Athletes): Athletic dogs can strain their muscles, just like people. This includes the
'professional' canine athlete performing in agility, fly ball, herding, or obedience, as well as the 'weekend
warrior' who goes for a long hike or dog park play session. Dogs may hide their symptoms until they become
extreme. Their survival instincts tell them to hide their pain in order not to appear weak to the rest of the
pack. Also, dogs can become so enthusiastic about what they are doing or so anxious to please their
owners that they keep performing even though injured. Pre-event massage warms up dogs by increasing
blood flow to muscles. It can also improve their focus and mental function. Post-event massage loosens up
muscles and joints and prevents stiffness and soreness. I incorporate stretching into my sessions for active
dogs.

information about my qualifications as a massage therapist, upcoming events where I will be teaching or
demonstrating massage principles, and the pricing list for treatments. To make an appointment please email
