Services

At Doggy Bliss I offer professional dog massage “Canine Myofunctional Therapy”, which is a gentle therapeutic massage exclusive for dogs. The treatment of massage is very safe when professionally applied. It is asking the body to behave as it should. The benefits are immediate and very effective

Massage is a whole health package;

• Induces relaxation
• Improves circulation
• Assists in the elimination of waste around the joints
• Improves muscle tone and flexibility
• Assists in maintenance of good posture and body balance
• Increases range of movement
• Reduces tension
• Assists the dog physically and psychologically
• Stress reduction
• Reduces pain and muscle tension (dogs with arthritis, hip dysplasia)
• Nerves and organs can operate better

Massage may also help dogs who have behavioural problems, as bad behaviour can stem from painful, rigid muscles affecting nerves.

Who can benefit from Myofunctional Therapy?

Myofunctional Therapy is perfect for:

• Dogs who suffered injuries or are recovering from surgery.
• Dogs who have disabilities or are just getting on in years and need some TLC on joints and muscles.
• Young dogs who are timid and need confidence to trust the human touch.

Myofunctional Massage Therapy also benefits the healthy and energetic pet. It assists in injury prevention to working, agility and racing dogs by maintaining their bodies in good supple and peak condition.

Consultations

My consultation is 1 1/2 hours and performed in the comfort and privacy of the owners home! Dogs feel more at ease in their own environment. At this time I can acquire all relevant information and history of the dog and I can also observe their movement, range of motion and gait. This will give me an indication and more information about the dog and what treatment I should perform.
