Who can benefit from Canine Massage?
Benefits of massage
Massage techniques can provide significant benefits across various age groups, from puppies to seniors. For puppies, massage enhances circulation throughout their developing bodies and fosters a positive association with touch, which is invaluable for future interactions at grooming sessions, vets office or during training classes. In seniors, massage can improve range of motion, increase blood flow to tissues and help restore balance within the immune system. For sport or working dogs, massage alleviates tension in overworked muscles, reduces the risk of injury and promotes relaxation, contributing to their overall well-being.
Massage therapy can offer numerous benefits for post-surgery recovery. It has the potential to significantly reduce healing time, minimize scarring, and serve as an alternative to steroid injections. This holistic approach aims to enhance your pet's comfort and expedite their recovery.
Trauma can be held for a lifetime if not corrected. Our approach aims to alleviate stress in highly anxious dogs, many of whom have been rescued from shelters, by promoting relaxation. By stimulating the release of dopamine and serotonin—neurotransmitters associated with reduced stress and depression—we can mitigate their fight-or-flight response. Additionally, our method aims to lower cortisol and norepinephrine levels by activating the relaxation response, further contributing to their overall well-being.
