Sat 28th June 2025 - Beginners Guide To Canine Massage - In Person - Lyons Community Centre in Caddington, Befordshire LU1 4FG - 9:30am - 3:30pm
Would you like to learn how to give your dog a Swedish Massage?
If the answer is yes, book on today.
This workshop is a great introduction to Canine Massage so you can help support your dog at home.
Canine massage offers the same benefits for your dog as it does for you. It promotes relaxation, helping your dog to unwind and alleviate stress. It helps to release endorphins, creating a sense of calm and contentment. Canine massage also enhances circulation, promoting blood flow to the muscles and tissues, which aids in the delivery of vital nutrients and oxygen. It reduces muscle tension and stiffness, particularly in active or senior dogs, providing relief from discomfort and enhancing mobility. Finally, the bonding experience between you and your dog during your massage sessions strengthens the emotional connection, fostering trust and enhancing the overall well-being of both of you.
Don't miss out on this opportunity to deepen your connection with your beloved best friend while enhancing their physical well-being. Book on a canine massage workshop today and embark on a new journey of connection with them.
(This workshop is for canine massage and is not a training or behaviour workshop. We therefore ask that your dog is sociable and has basic training.)

Learn & Practice Passive Range Of Movement Safely and in Alignment – a strong yet gentle technique to improve mobility in your dogs joints and muscles
As a matter of Best Practice we ensure that each and every dog attending one of our workshops has a full body palpation. This is a muscular health check for your dog that can flag up areas of muscular issue and pain, or joint concerns, which may mean a certain type of technique or passive range of motion, may not be suitable for them. This way we can ensure that each dog is given the appropriate massage techniques for that individual. The Muscular Health Check is offered to your dog as a free service and does not incur any extra charges.
Tutorial 3 – Guided Routine and time for Self-guided practice.
I will be demonstrating, and then guiding you as you apply the knowledge from the day to give your dog a 40 minutes Full Body Swedish Massage Routine. There is also time allocated for self-Guided Practice where I will answer any of your questions to ensure you are competent and confident in your techniques and practise.
