Reduced Energy Levels, Slow Movement or Stiffness?

You may or may not be giving your dog supplements, such as joint supplement to help with arthritis or general stiffness, but if you feel that your dog is displaying signs of soreness or awkward movement, have you ever thought of clinical canine massage?

Like us, dogs can have knots build up in their muscles, so why not treat them to some clinical canine massage and see how it can benefit their body.

My dog is in her pensioner years. Although she is quite active for her age and has supplements to help counteract the ageing process, to keep her as healthy as possible for as long as possible, I saw a big improvement in her energy levels and mobility after a few sessions of clinical massage, so we are scheduling ongoing maintenance sessions.

Instead of resting or sleeping straight after her walks, she now asks to go out into the garden immediately after her walk each time and enjoys a game of ball or chasing birds from the fence. She is resting less and playing more or wanting to be active in some way, even if just an extra car journey. She is definitely much more 'on the go'. 

Do consider clinical canine massage for your dog. Keep posted for details on educational events at Bellamy's Pad, including canine massage.
