I strongly believe in the power of the human touch. But why would it be needed for our animals? Well, living in this stressful, domesticated human world our animals take on our stress and inactivity. In the wild, they hunt, engage in social grooming and play; through this they stay toned and fit.
Massage takes the human touch to the next level.
Animal Massage goes back to the Egyptian cave paintings and the Renaissance paintings. Get this, according to http://www.massagetherapy.com/articles/index.php/article_id/409/Animal-massage
"A full body massage was recommended for dogs and horses by Flavius Arrianus, a philosopher and administrator under the reign of Roam Emperor Hadrian. He stated it would "knit and strengthen the limbs...make the hair soft and its hue glossy...and cleanse the impurities of the skin""
Through massage toxins are released, muscle mask is relaxed, stress is released, metabolism is increased, intestinal activity is increased, pain decreases, and the emotional bond increases... and you know strengthening the emotional bond is what Pet Charmer is about!

We at Pet Charmer believe that animal massage adds to the existing skills of dog trainers and pet sitters. Pet massage is a continued education course that will soon be FULLY added to Pet Charmer services.
Happy Tails and Merry Jingle Bells,
Pet Charmer
