Canine Massage
What is Canine Massage?
Canine massage is a holistic, hands-on technique designed to help dogs feel and move their best. It’s gentle, non-invasive, and supports both the physical and emotional well-being of your dog. As a complementary wellness modality, canine massage enhances the benefits of exercise, physical therapy, and veterinary care.
Canine massage is not a substitute for veterinary care. Instead, it is intended to support overall wellness and work alongside your veterinarian’s treatment plan.
Per Colorado regulations, therapeutic massage must be performed under the direct or general supervision of a licensed veterinarian. A completed veterinary supervision form is required prior to your dog’s first session.
