I hope people following these instructions will keep in mind that it is indeed VERY possible to hurt a dog with massage like this IF you're not paying attention to what they have to say about it. With my 15 yrs experience as a bodyworker, I'd say the massage seen here is better for prevention than for treatment of arthritis. Many arthritic dogs will have more harm than good done by applying these techniques AS APPLIED in this demo. HOW any technique is applied, and how it is adapted/adjusted for each individual's needs, is generally much more important than exactly which technique or another you're choosing. I did prefer, and tried, to send a private message via your website, but fyi my computer blocked it as "an attack" page, blocked by my computer's security settings.

Thanks, great point. My dog suffers from arthritis in rear legs, I would agree with u that u have to be very gentle if it's advanced and even avoid this technique in the vid. but gentle rubbing/ massaging of the joint can be done, I wouldn't risk yanking the joint in circular motions like in this vid.

Im so glad you said this. I just commented myself. I've been a bodyworker & watched this hoping to gain more tips bc we never stop learning. But dear lord this could cause severe damage to joints & tissue. I honestly feel like any video showing techniques on a dog needs to have huge disclaimers (older dogs = this, younger= that) & as rule of thumb to show ppl light strokes. It's just too risky to try & ensure ppl are following precautions correctly

Thank you for your video watched it several times to try to understand where and how to apply the massage the more you look the more you see, My boxer has arthritus and was feeling down, she over did it yesterday playing with younger dogs. She was struggling to get up from laying down. Massaged her and an instant transformation, watched each area in detail and applied the techniques, more improvement. Next thing she brings her toys to me to play with her what a difference. This will be part of her routine before and a few hours after a walk from now on. We limit her walks now but she has only just learnt to socialise at 8 years old (We have had her 2 years). Didn't have the heart nor want to discourage her from what she has missed for 8 years yesterday, we worked so hard to get her socialised only for her to be too old to enjoy it. I felt guilty that she was in pain today, but feel better that I could take that pain away. Finding the balance of what she can manage will come but this is now there to help her.
@Awesome41088 жыл бұрын
You can maybe do most of it with a puppy, but a dog with Arthritis pulling and circling the joints... not this way. It is extremely painful and can cause huge damage. People need to understand that they have to start slowly with even massaging the dog, and it is important to do warm up of the muscles first and after you have warmed up the muscles well, you can do direct pressure. The pressure should definitely be light on painful areas. You also want to get your arthritic dog used to be being massaged first and build up slowly. I always cringe when i see these videos, i know the intention of this video is to help, but we really need to make sure that people that have absolutely no experience in massage and bodywork don't go following the video and pulling joints out of place. The whole point is to help the dog and help his pain, rather than causing more especially with these rough joint pulling and circling... and i don't believe that in anytime during these types of treatments dogs need to be in pain.

+Awesome4108: 100% agree. I am certified in canine therapeutic massage (sounds as though you are as well) and this was pretty intense and aggressive treatment in this video. Definitely not anything I would suggest an owner to try to take on, on their own especially without a true understanding of canine anatomy, etc. There are some very basic techniques and massage sequences that can be done at home, safely, to help with inflammation and to help encourage circulation/increased mobility that are light and healing for the dog. Plus I would never suggest doing any sort of massage on a dog with rings on.

This is bit aggressive compared to what I learned in my classes. The arthritic dog would have to be warmed up more before taking him through such extensive range of motion exercises. If you're demonstrating arthritis massage use a arthritic dog to better demonstrate technique. Also I would use a towel between the limbs to keep the limb more parallel to the floor during the massage decreasing strain on an arthritic joints.

Hi Leslie, thanks for writing! The frequency of massages for a dog with arthritis depends on the severity of the condition and the dog's individual needs. It's always best to to talk with your veterinarina before starting any massage program for your dog. Your vet can give you specific areas to focus on to help your dog more, too. That being said, gentle massage techniques are great for dogs with arthritis, and it's generally recommended to perform massages on a regular basis to help alleviate discomfort, improve circulation, and reduce inflammation. For mild arthritis, once or twice a week may be sufficient, while for more severe cases, daily massages may be necessary. However, it's important to pay attention to your dog's body language and adjust the frequency of massages accordingly. If your dog seems uncomfortable or shows signs of pain during or after the massage, reduce the frequency or intensity of the massages, and consult with your vet for further guidance. It's also important to note that massage should be used in combination with other forms of treatment, such as medication and physical therapy, as part of a comprehensive care plan for dogs with arthritis. Best of luck with helping your dog feel better! And I'd love to hear your results as you continue with massage on your dog.

Thanks for writing! With small dogs like Chihuahuas, it's crucial to ensure you are very gentle with your massage. Massage will help! Gentle massage techniques focusing on the affected area can help alleviate discomfort, improve circulation, and reduce inflammation. Here are a few tips to keep in mind: - Start with slow, gentle strokes around the hip and thigh muscles, gradually increasing pressure as your dog becomes more comfortable with the touch. - Use circular motions with your fingertips, applying gentle pressure to stimulate blood flow to the area. - Avoid applying direct pressure to the hip joint, as this can cause pain and discomfort. - Pay attention to your dog's body language and stop if they show discomfort or pain. I hope your dog feels better! And I'd love to hear the results you get from this technique.
