Welcome to the Canine Remedial Massage website.
Why Canine Remedial Massage? Humans have benefitted from the effects of massage (the manipulation of soft tissue) for centuries, but now it is recognised that massage can benefit animals too. It is one of the fastest growing complementary therapies for animals including horses, dogs and cats. It can help with a variety of issues, both physiological and psychological. It helps your animal get 'the balance' back in their lives. I am based in West Cornwall and I qualified as a Canine Remedial Massage Therapist with The ICAT (The Institute of Complementary Animal Therapies) in 2010. I have experience in working with a variety of different dogs, from Toy Poodle to Doberman. From healthy, active dogs to ones who have suffered from trauma, or surgery and dogs suffering from the general effects of ageing. Although they vary greatly in size and shape, the principles of canine massage remain the same. I have yet to find a dog who has not benefitted, in some way, from a course of massage treatments. On the following pages I have listed some of the main benefits of canine massage and some of the conditions that may be helped. This is by no means exhaustive and if you have a specific query, I would encourage you to contact me to discuss your animal. Just like us, they are all individual. Canine Remedial Massage could help.
