Canine Massage Therapy
“Hi Britny here! As I’ve grown older my hind legs started showing signs of decreased muscle mass and weakness. I love taking my daily walks but sometimes my hind legs just slide out from underneath me. For a dog of my stature, it is very frustrating for me not to be able to gallop, prance and hang out with my friends at the dog park. I’m so glad Dr. Flegle introduced me to my new best friend: Elisha Edge. She is my Certified K-9 Massage Therapist…it was love at first sight! Did you know that Elisha is one of only a few board-certified Canine Massage Therapists in Missouri? I just feel so relaxed and at ease with her. You can just feel she is a dog lover! I can’t believe she is my personal masseuse. You do know that Masseuse is the French word that refers to a female who practices massages didn’t you? Me being a female dog…I even knew that. She gave me my very first massage and laser treatment. I bet you didn’t know they send you to massage school so they can teach you how to have magic fingers! My laser treatments along with my massages started to reduce some of my inflammation in my spine. Dog massages are different than human massages. Having massages regularly reduces my anxiety and stress which promotes my healing too. It’s also good for muscle stimulation which I definitely needed. Elisha is trained in many different types of massage treatments too: Lymphatic, Sports, Trigger Point, Mysofascial, and General Therapeutic.” - Britny
