I am a certified veterinary technician and certified canine massage therapist with a masters in immunology. Before becoming a canine massage therapist, I was a surgical research technician for a cardiovascular medical device company, an orthopedic veterinary technician and a developmental biology research associate.
Five years ago, my dog, Squid Vicious, was diagnosed and treated for bilateral iliopsoas strains and underwent stem cell/PRP surgery with Drs. Sherman & Debra Canapp at VOSM in Baltimore, MD. Following her surgery, I sought the very best team to help in Squid’s recovery. This included Bobbie Lyons Ccft for core strengthening and fitness exercises, Ken Bain LMT for canine trigger point training and Rocky Mountain School of Animal Acupressure & Massage for my massage certification.
My role is to help your canine athlete attain and maintain a sound state as a complement to your veterinarian's recommendations. The specific results of massage sessions will be different for each dog. Beneficial effects of massage include increased circulation of blood and lymph, pain relief, mood elevation, improved flexibility, increased range of motion, increased performance and decreased recovery time from performance or injury.
