Anxiety & Stress

Dogs can become anxious, nervous and stressed over a range of factors. Often it is a deep rooted issue that develops over a period of time which can contribute to muscoskeletal issues. Anxiety and fear can have a big impact on the myofascial network, contributing to habitual holding patterns, pain, gait irregularities and change in behaviour.

​

You may be surprised how well an anxious dog responds to massage. The empathetic and caring approached, along with the correct massage techniques, will ensure your dog receives all benefits that massage can offer.
