The Benefits of Massage

Massage Therapy provides a gentle and intentional touch that is tailored to your animals needs for optimal well being as well as providing complementary treatment options, together with your veterinary team, for the animal recovering from illness or injury.

​Massage Therapy is not a substitute for veterinary care but is a complementary modality to many conditions and treatments that require vet care.
