📣 Big News at Balanced Paws! 🐾
We are thrilled to announce a new collaboration with Lavanya of Loving Pawse Massage! 💛 Starting now, Lavanya will be seeing patients weekly on Tuesdays right here at Balanced Paws.
✨ About Loving Pawse & Lavanya:

🐶 What is Soft Tissue Massage?
Soft tissue massage is a therapeutic, hands-on treatment that works directly with your dog’s muscles, soft tissue, and circulation to:
• Reduce muscle tension & discomfort
• Improve flexibility and range of motion
• Support recovery after injury or surgery
• Enhance circulation for better overall wellness
• Promote relaxation & reduce stress
This modality goes beyond simple relaxation — it supports your dog’s body on a deeper level. lovingpawse.com
🤝 How It Fits Into Rehab:
Massage complements a complete rehabilitation program beautifully. When combined with other modalities like therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, laser therapy, and underwater treadmill work, soft tissue massage helps:
• Prepare muscles for exercise
• Decrease recovery time
• Improve functional movement
• Enhance comfort and well-being
Used together, these therapies create a more holistic, integrated approach to healing and performance for your companion. 🐕💪
📅 Schedule & Booking:
Lavanya will be available weekly on Tuesdays at Balanced Paws. To book a session or ask questions, please contact Lavanya directly through her website: 👉 https://www.lovingpawse.com
