Massage Therapy provides a gentle and intentional touch that is tailored to your animal's needs.

Massage works with all of your dog or horse's bodily systems in a gentle way that aims to restore balance. Those systems include: 
  • the muscular system and joints to ensure optimal function and tonicity
  • the lymphatic system to help with immune support
  • the circulatory system to help with oxygen and nutrient transport 
  • the respiratory system
  • the digestive system
  • the integumentary system
  • the nervous system​
