Who am I?

After working in public services, I trained as a yoga teacher, remedial massage therapist and Thai massage therapist and had been working with humans in that way for 9 years.

As a lifelong dog lover, I have volunteered with a number of dog specific charities like rescue centres and had a number of rescues as pets.

In early 2021, a local dog suffered a traumatic spinal injury and needed help but there was a lock down in place. Obtaining the required physical therapy treatment was not possible.

As a result of working with guidance from a veterinary neurosurgeon and animal physiotherapist, I was able assist this dog to full recovery.... and my interest in canine physical therapy was uncovered.

So I retrained and transferred my human skills and experience to dogs. I have an interest in canine rehabilitation from acute injury and I'm also a Canine Arthritis Management Advocate L1 😊

This is Bonnie, who started it all off and I'll tell you her full story next.

As a Professional Canine Massage Therapist, the well-being of your dog is at the forefront of my mind. What does this mean exactly?

*I always work with the permission of your vet.

*I make notes and send a written report to your vet after treatment.
*If there is no improvement after 3 massage appointments I refer you back to your vet.

*I can support your dog with a maintenance treatment programme if it has chronic conditions, such as arthritis, hip/elbow dysplasia

*I undertake never to treat a dog that is unwilling to receive therapy that day.

*I undertake never to treat a dog unnecessarily.

I'm happy to chat about how I might be able to help you support the comfort, well-being and vitality of your dog, you can call, message or text me on 07309 258812.
