Registered member of the Canine Massage Guild.
I provide evidence-based clinical canine massage to support dogs experiencing pain, injury and mobility issues.
My additional qualifications as a canine behaviourist complement my clinical canine massage work.
By understanding canine body language and recognising subtle behavioural changes, I can adapt each treatment to your dog's individual needs, helping them feel safe and supported throughout the session.

Body Mapping
This is a systematic way to map injuries across the body, identifying compensation chains and patterns. This is a focused muscle level mapping tool.
Specific Treatment Protocols
This is a highly-specialised, evidence-based, results-driven, externally verified and independently tested and proven methodology, specialised specifically in musculoskeletal dysfunction.
Independent clinical research conducted by the University of Winchester into the efficacy of Clinical Canine Massage, specifically the Lenton Method®, found that in a study of 527 dogs, 95.3% showed a positive response to treatment within 1–3 sessions.

Structured approach. Individual care.
Clinical Canine Massage is usually carried out as one session a week for three weeks.
Soft tissue and myofascial issues can be held within the body for months or even years.
The course of three sessions not only allows your dog to become accustomed to treatment but, as tissue yield occurs within the muscles and fascia, progressive assessment enables underlying dysfunction to be identified and treated.
The sessions are spaced to allow the body time to respond and begin the healing process.
Veterinary consent is required before treatment begins.
After the initial course, any further treatment is discussed with you based on your dog's individual progress and ongoing needs
Your dog's welfare - and your choice - will always guide the treatment plan.
