Canine Massage

Like the benefits of massage on the human body, Canine Massage helps to strengthen and regulate the dog's Respiratory, Circulatory, Immune and Gastrointestinal functions. Massage therapy can accelerate recovery from soft tissue injury, improve muscle tone and wellness, improve performance and enhance the quality of the dog's movement, as well as aid in the prevention of injuries to muscles and ligaments. Massage therapy helps to decrease inflammation in the joints and releases endorphins and other hormones to alleviate pain while decreasing the production of stress hormones. It relaxes and soothes the dog's nervous system, aids in digestion, and improves muscular flexibility.

Initial Canine Massage Session (60- 75 minutes) - $85*

Includes consultation, personality and gait analysis, full body massage with passive range of motion (PROM), and passive stretching.

*Travel fees may apply. See below for details.

Canine Massage Pricing & Additional Information

 

It is important to schedule your dog's session during a quiet time of day and not close to feeding time. You (the owner), a trainer or caregiver will need to be available for the beginning and end of the session to answer questions about your dog's current condition and treatment goals. It is recommended that you stay during the entire initial session, if possible.

After the initial massage session you may decide to take advantage of one of the available Massage Programs I offer. We will discuss recommendations based on your goals, budget and performance expectations. Dog and Companion packages are also available.
