So what is Clinical Canine Massage?
This unique, strong, manipulative Clinical Massage for dogs works by releasing tight, sore muscles,
removing debilitating ‘Knots’ or Trigger Points that cause referred pain and helps rehabilitate injuries by
breaking down restrictive scar tissue caused by daily activities that may be responsible for your dog’s
discomfort. It can help to resolve many day to day mobility issues whether they have suddenly come on or have been there for while. Getting your dog therapeutically treated by a Member of the Canine Massage
Guild is a must for any dog owner concerned with their dog’s mobility and health. It can help give you
answers for what you are seeing with your dog and importantly then do something about it with an hour of hands on therapy. We aim to give your dog results in just 1-3 sessions.
It’s also natural form of pain relief that can help to resolve soft tissue or muscular problems and helps
support orthopaedic issues like Arthritis and Hip Dysplasia with tangible results.

This is me with my boy Alfie enjoying a massage on my training course. We normally start massaging on the floor, but sometimes use a massage couch and ideally in a quiet and calm environment in your home.
Dogs normally take a little while to understand what massage is all about - as it's a very different way of touching them, but usually relax and enjoy it!
You will need to get vet consent for me to treat your dog - normally a simple procedure they are very familiar with. Click here to go to the form.
Results are normally seen in 3 sessions, each lasting about 1 hour and £35 per session.
