Description

Did you know that massages are super beneficial for dogs?Humans and massage go hand in hand together. When we have an injury or sore back we go to the chiropractor or physiotherapist. When we are in an accident and need rehabilitation we go into a lengthy process of physio, which includes massage.Top Athletes get massages nearly every day, and on game day, even several times a day. They would have serious problems without their warm ups, stretches and cool down massages. They even get massaged during games to optimise their physical ability to perform on the highest level possible. So, knowing all of this… why wouldn’t we transfer this to dogs and provide the same service to them? Older dogs may need some help getting all their stiff joints and cold muscles going. Sports dogs competing in agility, flyball or high drive sports need to ensure they are warmed up properly and cooled down to avoid injury. Then there is the dogs that may have had an injury or operation and can use some help during the recovery or the dog that enjoys some good relaxation, just like we humans do, to relieve stress.How often do you stop to think if your dog might be feeling a bit sore after a big hike?
