Massage
Massage is a deliberate and focused healing touch – a complement to veterinary care and home health maintenance. Addressing physical and emotional issues is paramount to a healthy lifestyle – for animals and humans. Massage is not a need, but healthy touch is. Intentional, methodic touch from massage helps provide that necessity for your unselfish companion.
The benefits of massage for your pet include:
-Increased Blood Circulation – Massage moves the blood through inactive muscles, bringing the oxygen, nutrients, proteins, and hormones necessary for normal cell growth.
-Increased Lymph Movement – The lymphatic fluid contains white blood cells – the work force of the immune system.
-Joint Pain Relief – Especially as dogs get older, massage can increase the range of motion and improve the function of painful joints.
-Decreased Anxiety – Stress is not exclusive to humans. Animals have their own, along with what is passed on by their human companions.
-Addresses Hyperactivity – Massage can teach your pet to relax in a positive, healthy fashion. It may also help in dealing with an overactive bladder.
-Reduces Recovery Time – After an operation, massage helps the body heal itself and relieves tension associated with fear.
