WHAT IS LASER THERAPY?
Lasers used in rehabilitation therapy, are also referred to as Low level laser therapy (LLLT), cold laser or laser biostimulation. The light emitted is absorbed in the tissue and converted into biochemical energy. This stimulates the tissue at a cellular level and enhances production of ATP, which accelerates tissue healing. Treatment times & parameters depend on several factors, but typically are less than 10 minutes per area.

Pet Massage Instruction
LEARN HOW TO MASSAGE
This is a hands on informational massage instruction/class for pet parents or animal rescue staff/volunteers. You will learn some basic massage techniques that you can safely do at home on your pet or rescue animals. Along with the massage techniques, you will also be educated on canine or feline behavior and massage benefits and precautions.
INDIVIDUAL or GROUP
Not every dog/cat enjoys the company or touch of strangers. For those who prefer to learn in the comfort of their own home, I offer 1-on-1 instruction.
For animals who don’t mind the company of others or for shelters/rescues, I offer small group instruction. There will be several dogs in the class that will be spread throughout the room, next to their handler. I will still work with everyone 1-on-1 but will present the info to the group and will then move from dog to dog.
