Skin rolling isn’t just a massage technique, I use it as an assessment tool.

What started for Bo as restricted, tight tissue in September, now moves freely in April. It’s a great example of how consistent bodywork supports mobility and comfort 🐾✨

Skin rolling is commonly used in canine massage and rehab work to:

🐶Identify areas of discomfort or guarding

🐶Support recovery from injury

🐶Improve overall movement and comfort

Even though Bo was a part of my canine certification course, he wasn’t listening when they taught us to signal “All Done” at the end of every massage 😂.

I’m pretty sure every dog in the course did the same😅.

Canine massage is about understanding what the body is communicating.

During a session, I’m observing many things including the 4Ts (temperature, tenderness, tension and texture), range of motion, sensitivity and how the dog responds to my touch. These indicators help guide me from one massage technique to the next. Every dog is different, so each session is approached individually with comfort and well-being as the priority.

Today I ended Bolt’s massage therapy session with some gentle facial work 🐶🤍.

The goal was to help Bolt’s nervous system stay calm so that the muscles worked on can rest and recover, keeping him strong 💪🏼.

We talk a lot about hips and knees, but what about the paws? 🐾

Dry pads crack.
Long nails can slowly change posture.
That fluffy fur underneath? It reduces traction and makes floors more slippery than need be!

It’s just a little maintenance, but it equates to healthier movement and mobility.

Show your pup some paw love 🐾🤍!
