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.
