This is an advanced unique palpation method, taught by Natalie Lenton, using my hands and fingertips to help search for and identify any superficial soft tissue injuries through touch. I will be looking, and feeling for musculoskeletal issues such as myofascial pain, trigger points, strains, and adhesions, covering over 40 pairs of muscles.

 

Please contact me if you would like further information.

Canine Massage Therapy is results driven, and the aim is to achieve results between one to three sessions. The first session will be 90 minutes, to include Consultation, Gait Analysis, Palpation, Massage, and follow-up feedback and general advice.

​

Subsequent treatment sessions will be 60 minutes, to include a brief discussion on how your dog responded to the previous sessions, Massage, and follow-up feedback and general advice.

​

These session times are approximate as it will always depend on how your dog responds.  It is important that I work with your dog, and at your dog's pace.

Ongoing maintenance sessions can benefit our senior or ageing dogs who may suffer from orthopedic conditions such as Osteoarthritis. These sessions can help with managing pain levels, improve muscle mass, and help with overall mobility, and comfort.

 

Maintenance massage can also help with post-operative care, aiding in associated pain management and range of movement, whilst speeding up the soft tissue repair and overall recovery process.

Maintenance sessions help sporting dogs such as (but not limited to) Agility, Canicross, Flyball, Gundo activities, and Obedience, playing a vital part in helping to improve performance, behaviour, and flexibility, by identifying and then managing any underlying issues or injuries.

At Four Borders Canine Massage Therapy, there is a discounted rate of £40 per dog, if you have more than one visiting the clinic for treatment. 

​

For home visits, the rate for a multi-dog household will be £40 per dog plus fuel.

 

*A signed veterinary consent form must be completed, per dog.
