Canine Massage for sporting dogs
All dogs use a wide range of muscles on a daily basis, but sporting dogs are likely to place even greater demands on their bodies. In this video, Jenny Youdan from K9 Elements Massage Therapy explains how Clinical Canine Massage can benefit sporting dogs both in general and in addressing specific problems.
Jenny explains the benefits of pre-event warm ups, in increasing blood flow to muscles and helping to prevent injury, and post event cool downs to eliminate toxins from the body which reduces muscle stiffness and promotes faster recovery. Jenny also discusses maintenance treatments to check for and resolve any injuries, maintain mobility and flexibility and focus on areas of overuse and keep them in balance.
