CANINE MASSAGE
WHAT IS CANINE MASSAGE?
Canine Massage is a non-invasive, hands-on therapy that treats the dog’s whole body rather than just the area of pain. It rehabilitates muscular injuries by manipulating the dog’s soft tissue structures. It helps to improve relaxation, relieves pain, improves joint flexibility and helps to boost the immune system. It is also able to help alleviate pain and symptoms from orthopaedic conditions such as arthritis, hip and elbow dysplasia and luxating patella promoting the overall health of your dog.
