Why?

Holistic treatments provide a more "natural" way to heal the body. Many times, "alternative" treatments are used to augment more traditional treatments and are not commonly used as the only treatment.
The aging processes take a toll on your pet. Arthritis, joint problems, torn or over- extended muscles and ligaments, injury and surgery are some of the more common ailments that can benefit from increased flexibility and reduced physical and mental stress.

Massage

massage itself will promote socialization of your pet, enhance the human-animal bond and help maintain the health of a pet that is kenneled. During a period of confinement or restricted movement, the body is at rest and the muscles are inactive or stiff when activities are resumed. Massage improves the flexibility of these muscles and aids to prevent injury.
Each muscle affects other muscles. There is a domino effect to the way each muscle works in conjunction to each other, and to the bones of the body they are connected to. A muscle in the rear leg that has suffered trauma will affect the muscles throughout the back, abdomen, front legs and neck. This will change the way in which the animal walks, stands, eats and plays. It can also change his behavior. Medication alone will help control pain and inflammation and even help control the signs of trauma to the muscles. But, massage will help to heal the trauma. Manipulation of the muscles strengthens them and allows the pet to release adhesions and to use the muscles slowly. .
