Orthopaedic conditions affect the skeleton and associated musculature causing acute and chronic pain. 

Massage and laser therapy can help a dog with these conditions by:

​

  • reducing painful swelling

  • improving circulation of blood and lymphatic fluids

  • tackling areas of over-compensation and referred pain 

  • improving mobility and joint flexibility

  • keeping the dog balanced by reducing muscular atrophy (wastage)

  • relaxing muscles and associated connective tissue allowing them to function more efficiently

  • managing and reducing the sensation of pain

  • improving the dogs mood and quality of life

Orthopaedic conditions like arthritis are painful, massage can help

Coco was having trouble after cruciate surgery "Well after only two [massage] sessions I saw a huge improvement in coco’s walking." Michelle, WGC

Massage and laser therapy cannot correct orthopaedic conditions but they can make living with them more bearable. Working alongside and with the consent of the vet I can help a dog live a happier, healthier life.
