K9 Massage Workshop with Kim Swan from Tranquil Swan

Kim Swan will be available in Pembroke, to provide the Canine Massage Clinic.

Canine massage therapy is a form of alternative therapy that promotes a dog’s health. It is proven that the touch given to a dog through massage can improve not only a dog’s physical but also his emotional well-being. Massages are great for dogs who suffer from nervousness, anxiousness and hyperactivity. Dog massage benefits include:

• Relaxation
• Increased oxygenation of the blood
• Pain relief
• Improved flexibility
• Improved immune system
• Reduced age-related issues
• Reduced arthritis and hip dysplasia discomfort
• Muscle tension, soreness, weakness and spasm relief

Canine massage workshop, 

This is a fun class where you get to learn how to pet your dog with even more love and attention to their bodies. You’ll learn some simple massage techniques to enhance your everyday animal care.  We’ll spend time learning how to do the massage moves, and practice with each other. Then those with working spots will get to practice on their dog and I’ll guide them through the routine.
