One animal session includes an assessment, alignment, acupressure, massage, and stretching.
Misalignments cause interference with nerve transmissions preventing your animal from functioning properly. Oxygen within muscles become depleted; excess lactic acid builds and inhibits full muscle range of motion. Recovery time can range from just minutes to months depending on the time elapsed and amount of misalignment occurred.
There are 26 stress points on each side of an animal, one per major muscle group (at each sight the tendons in that muscle come together). Acupressure and massage enable blood flow to and through the muscle; it cleanses toxins and rebuilds oxygen levels.
Alternative therapy is evolving dramatically in the animal kingdom. We all need to feel 100% to give 100%. We know how hard it can be to function from a slight headache to an excruciating pinched nerve. Animals rely on us to provide options of help and relief from what hinders them.
It is important to remember that this therapy is complimentary to Veterinary Care and should not be used to replace it. Please research your therapist as certification and courses for animal alternative therapies are not regulated or governed in Alberta or Saskachewan.
