Kinesiology

What makes Kinesiology so effective and unique is the combination of western physiological science with eastern traditional medicine. The physiological science behind Kinesiology is the ability to access the patient’s own bio-feedback through muscle monitoring. Applying the art of gentle muscle monitoring allows the practitioner to identify dysfunction or stress in all the different body systems.    

Common issues Kinesiology can address in your pet include physical pain and injuries, arthritis, recovery from surgery, allergies, diabetes, anxiety and fear, aggression, other behavioural and emotional problems, hormonal imbalances, digestive upsets and toxins to name a few.        

TREATMENT/CORRECTIONS

Kinesiology is a unique and individual therapy.  Through surrogate muscle monitoring the story of your pet will unfold; it is their subconscious and connection to you that directs the therapy and also identifies what corrections they need to facilitate the healing process.  All corrections are energetic in nature, non-invasive and based on the wisdom of eastern medicine.  They can include:

  • acupressure
  • neurovascular & neurolymphatic stimulation
  • gait corrections
  • chakras
  • emotional stress defusion techniques
  • meridian stimulation &
  • flower essences

Myofunctional Massage holisticpaws-waggytails

Myofunctional Massage

Massage impacts your dog’s entire body, not just the local muscles and tissues being manipulated.  All body systems are interconnected and therefore have an impact on each other.    The indirect or ripple effect of massage is that it stimulates and affects the circulatory, endocrine, nervous, digestive and respiratory systems.  This in turn helps with pain relief, has a calming effect as it reduces stress hormones and lowers anxiety, increases blood flow, boosts the immune system, stimulates waste & toxin removal, improves nutrient absorption and increases flexibility and muscle tone. 

HOW MASSAGES FOR DOGS CAN HELP

Massage can help many types of ailments and injuries along with mental and emotional stress.  See below for some common issues massage may improve:

  • elderly & arthritic dogs
  • pre & post op injuries (i.e. hip & elbow dysplasia, cruciate, luxating patella, spinal etc.)
  • muscle sprains & strains (limping)
  • dull, dry coat
  • behavioural issues
  • fear & anxiety
  • general relaxation & bonding
 

Nutrition

One of the major factors contributing to ill health is poor diet.  Your pet requires food to provide energy for the efficient functioning of all body systems. This includes circulation, breathing, muscle movement, bone and muscle growth,  body temperature, and reproduction just to name a few.  The effectiveness of their organ and system functioning is dependent on the quality of energy/nutrients they consume.   

Nutrition plays a vital role in all stages of a pets life and varies depending on age, sex, breed, size and lifestyle.   Their nutrition is the one decision that you have total control over; you choose what your pet eats. Providing a healthy non processed diet is the first step to a healthy exuberant pet that has a chance to age gracefully and live longer so you can enjoy a longer life with them.

YOUR FIRST TREADMILL SESSION

The initial consult/assessment involves a detailed look at your dog’s medical condition, home environment, diet, exercise, medications etc. We also do a postural analysis, including a gait assessment and muscle mass measurements if needed. Prior to the treatment your dog will be given a head to tail health check to ascertain suitability for hydrotherapy.

Your dog will have a harness or life jacket fitted prior to entering the treadmill. A certified Hydrotherapist will be in the treadmill during their treatment. After the session your dog will be towel dried or rinsed if they have any skin sensitivities. On completion we will give you our recommendations for moving forward and a detailed home treatment plan.

Please note all hydrotherapy bookings need Vet Approval. If you would like to download a copy of our Vet Referral form to email to your Vet please click on the button below.
