If massage can help your dog you will see improvements in 1 - 3 sessions.
Your dogs first massage session lasts up to 90 minutes and you will need to bring a signed vet consent form with you. The session includes:
-
an analysis of your dog standing, sitting and on the move.
-
a few lifestyle and medical history questions
-
a full body palpation to assess your dogs superficial musculature.
-
a full body massage (as appropriate to your dogs needs and comfort level)
-
advice to take home with you.
This initial consultation costs £75
​
All sessions after this cost £60 (or £65 in my Aylesbury clinic) and usually take 50-60 minutes. It is recommended that your dog has three initial treatments within a 3-6 week period. In this time we discuss any changes you have noticed, any concerns you have and tackle any questions you may have.
​
After three sessions we will discuss next steps and I will produce a report for your vet on my findings.
​
If you are not sure whether massage will benefit your dog, whether I am the right therapist for you or whether your dog will accept my touch you can always book them in for a Muscular Health Check (MOT) first. This is provided for a minimum £10 donation to NAWT Watford.
​
Remember I need vet consent to treat. If I am treating an injury or a diagnosed condition you may be able to claim the costs of treatment back from your pet insurance and a call to them to check this option would be recommended.
