Surgery and Injury Recovery

 Most people recognize surgery and injury recovery as one of the primary uses for massage.  There are certainly many benefits to be gained by including massage and aromatherapy in your dogs’ recovery program.

The increased blood flow that massage creates helps to carry nutrients to the affected site and carry waste products away, aiding the healing process.  Aromatherapy can help to sooth pain and increase appetite, helping your dog to get their strength back.

 If your dog has had to have an area shaved for surgery, most guardians notice hair growing back at a faster rate due to the increased blood flow caused by massage.  A visible sign we are getting some healing to the area.
