Helping your pet heal, move, and thrive
There’s more you can do to support your pet’s healing! Alongside veterinary care, massage and myofascial release (MFR) can help reduce pain, ease tension, and restore mobility—helping your dog or cat bounce back faster and stronger.
​
By addressing muscle imbalances and compensatory patterns, massage not only aids in recovery but also builds resilience, reducing the risk of future injuries and keeping your pet active and comfortable for years to come.

Anni is a seven year old German Shepherd dog with a history of pain and stiffness in her hind legs. She was diagnosed with a probable partial CCL tear and she was having trouble getting up from a sitting or lying down position. She needed pain medication often and was becoming averse to exercise. We decided to try massage in order to minimize pain medication.
We feel that Lisa has been successful in helping her pain and has increased her willingness to run and play. We feel that the massage not only provides pain relief, but actually goes to the source of the pain by relieving symptoms so that Anni can do the necessary work of strengthening her body. Instead of being in a downward cycle of pain and the subsequent underuse of her legs, Anni is now exercising and strengthening her body naturally. She very rarely has one of those days when it ispainful to watch her struggle to her feet. And we rarely need to give her pain medication. She clearly enjoys her massagetherapy and benefits from it. -Shelly Hendler
