Description

This four day practical and theoretical course teaches how to recognize and help with gait,muscle,skeletal and chronic pain issues in the dogs they are training,together with an understanding of how to enhance stability and core strength in the dog through the use of appropriate exercises Over the course, you’ll gain a fundamental understanding of how a dog’s body should move and explanation around behavioral traits indicating chronic pain. We’ll also explore where the main skeletal structures and muscles are situated, and in turn this will provide an understanding of how a dog looks and feels when their muscles are unhealthy and painful (as opposed to healthy and not painful). It’s our aim that by the end of the four days, you’ll be in a position to share with clients that you’re working with how they can apply some massage techniques on their own dogs to help reduce chronic muscle pain and improve good muscle function (however, please bear in mind this course does not provide the skills to be a canine massage therapist). You’ll also received a basic understanding of exercise physiology and the importance of correctly performed exercises; these will demonstrate the importance of establishing good muscle stability and core strength. We’ll also discuss safe and natural exercises for the dogs do at home to enhance their mobility, flexibility and general health.
