Maintenance massage therapy
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Maintenance massage can decrease muscular tension in your pet, support them as a preventative care measure, and contribute to a holistic approach to their well-being.

Rehabilitation massage therapy
Injury, illness, and surgery can’t always be avoided, but recovery can be helped. Rehabilitation massage, if deemed appropriate by your veterinarian, can stimulate the healing properties of your pet’s body and provide comfort.
