Initial Touch:
Many animals are initially uncomfortable with structured touch (massage). This is not unusual and should be expected to some degree. Massage is very intimate for people and animals. Therefore, intense focus and touch by a stranger is sometimes uncomfortable for an animal until trust is established. Usually by the third massage (the magic massage) they fully understand, appreciate and enjoy massage.
Massage:
The primary goal with massage is to relieve discomfort.
Animals compensate for sore/injured muscles and joints by shifting their weight to other pain free muscles and joints. This compensation can cause a chain reaction of pain and discomfort. Massage can reverse this effect and keep the body comfortable.
Cold Laser Therapy:
Low Level Laser is used in conjunction with massage to decrease inflamamation and promote healing of cells. Laser light is emitted from a diode which penetrates tissue and is completely safe.
