Massage & Bodywork
Canine Massage Therapy and Myofascial Release are alternate treatments that have many benefits including relaxation, increased circulation, pain relief, flexibility, improved muscle and joint health, and a boost to the immune system.
Massages are offered in home by half or one hour appointments. Massage is covered under many pet insurance plans, and is an excellent compliment to traditional veterinary care. Not every dog is a good candidate for massage, please contact for a pre-screening to see if massage would benefit your dog.
Kinesiology Taping is an excellent complement to massage, with benefits including additional support, circulation, alignment, proprioception, and pain relief.
