 What are the many benefits of massage therapy for animals?
Massage can help your pet's physical and mental health
by:
- Increasing their circulation and helping eliminate toxins
and wastes from their bodies.
- Improving their joint flexibility and muscle tone, which can
be very beneficial to older animals, those with active lives
such as performance animals. Massage is very popular with
agility dogs and sport horses.
- Improving the condition of their skin, coat, gums, and
teeth.
- Improving their attitude and ability to focus, which can
affect behavior, training, and performance.
Massage therapy for animals can help with behavior and
temperament problems by:
- Gaining their trust through the act of being touched.
- Calming down a nervous or hyper pet.
- Helping a shy or submissive pet feel more secure.
- Relaxing an aggressive or dominant pet.
Massage can help pets that are recovering from injuries or
have chronic conditions by:
- Enabling atrophying muscles to work the way they are
supposed to.
- Reducing the recovery time from soft tissue injuries.
- Providing relief from muscle soreness and spasms.
- Relieving pain and discomfort associated with conditions
such as arthritis and hip dysplasia.
