Every dog has a unique personality, body, and history. Zen Dog Massage can benefit every dog whether for general well-being, vitality, and balance or help with a particular condition.

So how does it work?

I offer a mobile in-house service for your convenience and your dog’s comfort. We get to talk and share information while I'm assessing the dog’s appearance, movement and general well-being. Once we are all happy, I’ll begin the massage and slowly introduce different techniques depending on the dog’s feedback. You're welcome to stay,  watch, learn and relax with your dog.

I use a PetMassage™ sequence which allows the dog to relax and open its body and mind. This sequence uses gentle massage, vectoring, skin rolling, fascia release, palpating, Ortho-Bionomy, and much more. I also use Canine Hanna Somatics™  to facilitate greater ease of movement, while helping restore sensory-motor amnesia and overall mobility.

The procedures used in Zen Dog Massage are gentle and highly effective  ─ most of these procedures are used on humans. It’s a non-invasive method of bodywork, which uniquely addresses pain and stress patterns and promotes structural balance, well-being, and ease.

Below is a list of benefits your dog will experience:

• Stimulates muscle tone by releasing and relaxing the fascia system

• Increases circulation to all parts of the body

• Changes the muscular system by changing the central nervous system

• Provides the energy and realignment to renew cells, revitalize and re-pattern bodily habits

• Improves sensory-motor amnesia

• Improves immune function

• Comforts tired muscles, improves flexibility and helps post-exercise soreness

• Helps stiffness and discomfort in older dogs

• Helps with behavioral problems resulting from physical or emotional pain

• Speeds up healing after surgery or injury

• Is a shared journey for dog and owner, strengthening the bond

• Introduces a Zen mindset and approach for a deeper connection between dog and owner

Zen Dog Massage complements many veterinary treatments and is a totally natural and heartfelt massage.

Typically the massage session lasts 30 - 40 minutes but please allow 1 hour. Value of $65.
