At Both Ends of the Lead, we help older dogs and dogs with Arthritis live a long, happy and pain-free life.
FOR DOGS
Areas Tim can help:
CANINE MUSCLE FUNCTION THERAPY/BOWEN THERAPY
We all know how much our dogs enjoy being touched and petted as a form of affection and communication between ourselves and them.
With Canine Massage and Bowen Therapy, Tim uses refined skills and a range of techniques to help relax tired muscles and relieve pain. This assists to increase circulation to injured or inflamed muscles and assists in restoring optimal movement, quality and flexibility.
Massage can help:
Reduce pain and muscle tension
Improve muscular and joint mobility
Slow down the ageing process and reduce the effects of arthritis
Improve movement quality, leading to enhanced performance levels for agility and show dogs
Improve digestion
Enhance the elimination of toxins
Improve the assimilation of nutrients AND
Help your dog live a longer, happier life!
REHABILITATION EXERCISE THERAPY
An exercise therapy program consisting of stretches, mobilisation techniques and strengthening exercises can be tailored to your dog if appropriate.
LASER THERAPY AND ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture is a highly effective way of treating a wide range of muscle and joint problems, including Arthritis.
Tim combines the magic of Acupuncture with a range of other game changing techniques and strategies to help get the best possible outcome for your dog.
Laser therapy can be particularly beneficial for unhealthy cells within the muscle tissue, meaning it can help reduce pain levels, enhance the repair of damaged ligaments and the healing of wounds.
Low level laser therapy can also be an effective tool for pre and post operative conditions.
INFRA-RED ONNETSU HEAT THERAPY
Onnetsu heat therapy is a remarkable unique form of heat treatment from Japan, which has been proven to be very effective in degeneration conditions such as Arthritis.
An important factor in maintaining good health is that our inner body temperature remains between 36.5-37 degrees.
Any cells or tissues that are unhealthy or injured can become deprived of body heat. Therefore, they can become colder in that area. Often areas of illness and injury are colder than other parts of the body.
Onnetsu heat therapy is applied to the cold or injured area to increase the inner body temperature and stimulate the diseased/injured cells to help the area recover health.
Onnetsu heat therapy can help promote immune system function and balance the nervous system, as well as promote the flow of blood and lymph which can help lead to optimal health levels.
Tim has achieved sigificant positive outcomes using this form of treatment in a range of spinal and hip related issues. See Testimonials to read more about the benefits of Onnetsu heat therapy.
Tim will happily tailor the most effective approach for your dog, and can combine different strategies and treatments to help your much loved dog get the best possible outcome ...
... and crucially show you the life changing techniques he has personally used and developed over 15 years to give you the tools you need to help your own dog.
