Why learn canine massage?
Research has demonstrated that dogs and humans have similar musculoskeletal systems. Additionally, many of our other biological systems (e.g., lymphatic system) are very much alike. So it makes sense that all of the benefits that humans get from a massage will be present for our four-legged friends on the massage table. Below are just a few of the benefits dogs experience through massage:
• Reduces stress levels
• Increases circulation, sending more blood and oxygen to the entire body
• Decreases muscle soreness
• Improves lymphatic drainage
• Aids in recovery from exercise
• Facilitates movement of the joints
• Nourishes the tissue and joints
• Calms the nervous dog
• Reduces pain caused by trigger points in the tissues
• Reduces scar tissue build-up from surgery or injury
• Can help a dog to focus
• Increases the bond between pets and their people
• Desensitizes dogs with touch issues
• Facilitates proper range of motion
• Feels terrific and makes for a happy dog
Canine massage is not just beneficial for dogs; it is also beneficial for the person providing the massage. If you’re interested in improving the lives of dogs, canine massage could be an excellent career choice. Get certified and unleash your inner dog!
