What is Pet Massage?

Pet massage includes a variety of techniques - some centuries old and others quite new. It has been used to calm show dogs, to relieve pain in working dogs and to increase energy and focus in agility dogs. Now it is available to improve the quality of your pet's life.

Each pet massage is different; it depends on the pet's needs that day. Once pets become familiar with massage, they are eager to begin each session and they relax quickly and deeply. Often a pet will "ask" for particular work by moving his body under the hands.

Massage is part of a complete wellness program for your pet. A massage will relax muscles, invigorate circulation and stimulate key acupressure points. Massage does not substitute for veterinary care, but complements it. Regular massage can often bring important changes in your pet's condition to your attention so that medical advice can be sought before the problem becomes advanced.
