Canine Myotherapy
What is canine myotherapy?
Canine myotherapy is massage therapy for dogs. Canine myotherapists treat chronic muscular pain in dogs, and the compensatory issues that arise from this. By treating the muscular pain and compensatory issues, we will be able to improve mobility, as well as physical, psychological, and emotional well being.
Myotherapy broken down translates to muscle therapy, and is a complimentary muscle therapy specialising in:
-
Promoting muscle and soft tissue health
-
Repetitive strain injuries
-
Chronic muscular pain
-
Chronic postural and weight bearing issues
-
Releasing the myofascia which is the connective tissue system within every body
-
Support the body in the development of healthy scar tissue
-
Muscle tension
-
Lameness which would typically be difficult to pinpoint
-
Compensatory issues
Each dog will be provided with their own tailored programme, which will include advanced clinical massage techniques applied by myself at scheduled appointments, as well as exercises and massage techniques that can be used at home between appointments to continue strengthening and building the muscles whilst managing chronic pain.
