Our Results

“After just one session his limp went completely.” 

Bex & Perci

Perci having canine massage therapy

Perci the canicross dog was lame.  His vets couldn’t find the cause.

During treatment, I discovered Perci had an unusual problem with his foot.

Once I’d resolved this for him he hasn’t limped since.

 

Canine Massage Therapy helps when your dog :

  • Is slowing down before their time
  • Refuses to go for walks
  • Lags behind on walks
  • Refuses to jump or is measuring
  • Is stiff or groans getting up or laying down
  • Shows behavioural changes (from reactive to withdrawn)
  • Displays new performance issues

Clinical Canine Massage is natural and non-invasive.

Perfect for NSAID intolerants!

  • Provides natural pain relief
  • Keeps muscles and joints healthy
  • Restores balance and sense of calm
  • Keeps your dog moving

Chewy’s Mum

This is Chewy, a young rescue dog.

Chewys Mum wanted to get him Agility ready and so joined my 8-week foundation class.

Testimonials

Perci is a very active Cani-cross dog. He developed sudden forelimb lameness appearing like a shoulder issue. The vets were stumped and couldn’t find the cause. During Perci's massage treatment, I discovered he had an unusual problem with his foot. Once I’d resolved this for him he hasn’t limped since and continues to this day with his Cani-cross career. "After just one session his limp went completely."
