By: Satya House Publications Inc. If you’ve ever had a massage you know how much better it makes you feel. The benefits of canine massage are about the same…for you and your 4-legged friends. Massage can help your dog relax, decrease chronic pain, speed up recovery from injuries, and help condition a working or competitive dog. What’s more, massage can allow you to relax and strengthen the bond between you and your canine companions. A Dog Lover’s Guide to Canine Massage includes an easy-to-understand section on canine anatomy from head to tail. You’ll learn what to look for before, during and after massage; why certain techniques are better than others for particular conditions such as arthritis; and how easily you can incorporate massage into your canine companion’s daily life. Luke Robinson and his two dogs are on a 2,400-mile trek from Austin to Boston to raise awareness about cancer in dogs. “I start our day with stretching exercises from A Dog Lover’s Guide to Canine Massage and end it with massages,” he says. “Using the techniques in this book has made our pack closer and stronger, able to overcome the countless challenges we encounter on the road.” The authors have a wealth of experience and expertise that made them uniquely qualified to create this easy-to-use workbook.
