Dogs like humans need care and therapy from time to time. Many dogs suffer unnecessarily and in the caring hands of a trained canine remedial massage therapist much can be achieved to assist a dogs healing and or recovery. As with humans not all muscular skeletal conditions can be effectively treated with massage however many can.
If you like to work with dogs and have a passion to assist our four legged friends there are numerous opportunities, perhaps to establish your own canine remedial massage service, whether that be from a home base or at canine events or working along side other animal specialist such as Vets and or Vet nurses. Many dogs need rehabilitation especially in greyhound racing and in show dog areas however many loved household pets also need care and attention after injury, illness or accident. If you own a dog (or dogs) you are sure to personally benefit from this training, have a lot to offer your own pet but also other dogs in need.
