Remedial and rehabilitative massage aims to bring back optimum body movement and function after an injury, surgery or illness. For dogs in this position, massage of this nature can play an important part in the recovery process. By utilising massage we are able to:

​

​

increase circulation and in turn assist natural healing processes

​

assist in the removal of toxins and muscle repair

​

minimise muscle atrophy (wastage) from lack of mobility

​

build balance and proprioception

​

address compensation issues

​

soothe and calm the nervous system

​

ease pain and discomfort

 

Working with your veterinarian to support your dogs health and recovery is also encouraged under these circumstances.
