When it comes to having a central nervous system and the ability to feel pain, hunger, and thirst, a rat is a pig is a dog is a boy. ~Ingrid Newkirk

Your pet can have a "ruff" day, too! Most animals cannot communicate their pain or discomfort the way humans do.

Massage can offer the same health benefits for our animals as it does for us.

Massage can:

  • Reduce muscle tension and soreness
  • Improve circulation of blood and movement of lymphatic fluids
  • Provide immune support
  • Stimulate the body’s natural healing properties
  • Improve the condition of the skin and coat
  • Reduce recovery time
  • Provide pain relief
  • Provide emotional and physical comfort during periods of stress/transition/confinement
  • Improve flexibility
  • Expedite removal of wastes and toxins
  • Stimulate muscles in elderly or inactive animals
  • Serve as a proactive wellness tool

Note: Massage is not a substitute for proper veterinary care. Massage practitioners cannot diagnose or prescribe. Rehabilitation bodywork done to address specific injury or illness needs to be approved by your veterinarian.
