Exercise Rehabilitation

Conditioning Your Canine Through Exercise!

As well as using specialised massage techniques on your dog I can offer rehabilitation exercise programmes to:

  • provide effective pain management
  • help to manage chronic conditions
  • maintain fitness
  • encourage body awareness and better muscle engagement

I can provide targeted exercises to strengthen particular muscle groups, train specific neuromuscular pathways and enhance body awareness (proprioception).

Following a thorough assessment of your dog I will recommend appropriate exercises for you to train and complete together. The exercises will be tailored specifically to your dog’s needs and the conditioning aims at that time. A suitable progression through to different, more challenging, exercises will also be recommended as your dog strengthens and improves.

We will talk about your dog’s environment: the home and garden.

We’ll also discuss the exercise routine to agree what they should or should not be doing and how they can benefit the most from this time with you.

It should be a wonderful bonding experience for you both, with plenty of feel good endorphins!
