THAI DOG MASSAGE
About Thai Dog Massage
Thai massage is one of the oldest Eastern therapies, aimed at balancing different parts of the body to facilitate the unhindered flow of stagnant energy. It is utilized to harmonize the elements of the body that may be obstructed.
Thai massage provides relief from pain, induces relaxation, enhances lymph and blood circulation, and strengthens the body’s immune system.
When the body is in a healthy state, life energy flows smoothly, but any injury or weakness can disrupt this natural flow. Typically, this form of treatment complements other therapies.
Focus
I incorporate Thai massage along with Swedish massage.
Thai massage does not occupy the entire session time, so I typically combine it with Swedish massage, using it as a relaxation method following a warm-up and workout. For optimum results, I suggest a maximum of 1 session per week. However, for a regularly active dog, 2-3 sessions per month are enough.
In contrast to Swedish massage, which targets muscles and joints, Thai massage centers on energy lines and energy points.
Energy lines and energy points are vital elements in Thai massage.
The energy lines consist of two even lines along the spine, a central line on the spine, and three distinct energy lines on the limbs. The energy points are situated on the limbs, and we focus on these points when addressing issues in their immediate vicinity.
These lines create an intricate network that reaches every cell in the body, forming a connected system.
Thai massage is particularly effective for paralyzed dogs. By enhancing circulation to the immobilized part of the body and stimulating the flow of energy through activation points on the meridians, we infuse life force into the paralyzed limb.
Reviews
"Spot is 9 years old, and although he is not currently showing any significant mobility difficulties or pain, I know that old age joint disease can slowly set in, so Petra visits us a few times a month to keep him exercised. Spot really enjoys it and after the sessions he visibly has more energy. I want to keep him in good health as long as possible, so we will definitely continue his treatment. She and Spot seem to love each other."
