Why should my pet get a Massage? Massage is hugely beneficial to young and elderly animals for the very same reasons it’s good for people. A gentle “maintenance” massage moves toxins out of the muscles and tissues and sends them out of the body. Massage can lengthen or shorten muscles to help correct an animal’s posture or gait. Massage can prevent injury by warming the muscles in preparation for a walk (especially elderly animals), run, or an event like agility. Following surgery or trauma, massage is critical for wound healing and proper scar formation. Why should my pet get a Tellington TTouch (“TTouch”) session? As we all know, everyday stress and strain plus emotional ups and downs affect our behavior and health. This is also true for our animals. TTouch is a wonderful method that works with the animal’s nervous system to calm, center, and convey confidence. Establishing calm directly impacts the animal’s health and keeps dangerous toxins such as adrenalin and cortisol in check. Improving confidence can help your animal cope with difficult situations. This will help him make better choices about how to react when frightened or anxious. TTouch is used to help: · Excessive barking and chewing · Leash pulling, jumping up · Aggressive behavior, extreme fear, and shyness · Resistance to grooming · Excitability and nervousness, separation anxiety · Car sickness · Problems associated with aging · An animal enjoy a quiet hour of attention · Promote wellness and quality of life YIKES!!
