MASSAGE FOR DOGS

DOG MASSAGE
We have the various advantages of massage for dogs that shows it is not a luxury but a necessity. In this article, we are going to focus on the various types of dogs that will benefit by being massaged.
PUPPIES
Dogs usually grow fast. Unfortunately, this rapid growth often leaves the puppies rather uncomfortable. Massage for dogs will help these little canine friends to alleviate the discomfort caused by rapid growth.
YOUNG DOGS
Young dogs in the adolescent stage are usually very active & excitable. They enjoy rowdy paly that can easily result in injury. Massage for dogs will help in lowering the risk of dog injury.
OLDER DOGS
As dogs get older, they are usually prone to suffering from stiffness. Massage for dogs will help in making these dogs become more flexible, which will improve movements. They will become steadier as they move with relative ease.
Studies have shown that massage for dogs makes these older members of the canine society to become more active, renewing their interest in activities they had long given up.
Enhanced circulation of blood helps in transporting necessary nutrients to all parts of the body, including the tail.
DOGS WITH JOINT DISORDERS
Dogs usually suffer from various kinds of joint disorders, some of which are arthritis & dysplasia. While these complications may start at a relatively tender age, they become more apparent as the affected dogs get older. However, there are some complications that will seriously affect the dogs when they are still quite young.
There are a number of things you should do in order to help affected dogs. they include ensuring that the dogs do not get overweight, develop their muscles, & ensure that they have supple joints. This essentially means watching their food & massaging them.
Massage for dogs will enhance flexibility & thereby improve the dog’s mobility. This will then enable the dog to exercise, which is an important ingredient for good health.
RECOVERING DOGS
Dogs that are recovering from various types of medical complications can take quite a long time in the healing process. A lengthy recovery period has other risks.
When you massage your dog to complement veterinary care, it will be able to recover relatively fast. This will lower the period of discomfort & pain. Massage for dogs will also curb complications that result from muscle atrophy.
Dogs that are waiting to undergo surgery will also benefit from massage.
SHY DOGS
Shy dogs, such as those that are still getting used to new environments, usually suffer from anxiety & stress. Massage for dogs will help to relieve these problems so that they can settle in well. Other shy dogs will also learn to trust people more.
CONCLUSION

There are many other types of dogs that will benefit from massage for dogs. This suffices to show that virtually all kinds of dogs should receive this exercise.

MASSAGE FOR BABIES

BABY MASSAGE
Massage is very helpful for the healthy development of bones of your baby. It also strengthens the bonds between you & your baby. Pediatric research has shown that babies born prematurely make much quicker progress when given regular massage.
The best time to massage your baby is just after his or her bath when he or she is not feeling hungry or irritable. Make sure the room is nice & warm & perhaps perfume it gently with a vaporizer & one of the relaxing aromatherapy oils.
You will find it easiest to work sitting on the floor, legs outstretched with the baby lying on your legs. This means he or she is reassured by the warmth of your skin. Make sure you feel comfortable before you start & if necessary, prop yourself up with a couple of cushions.
You need to remove any jewellery & warm your hands & the oil prior to massage. Use a blend of 4fl oz (100ml) of sweet almond oil to which you have added two drops of any of the following essential oils – CHAMOMILE, LAVENDER, or NEROLI. Now you are ready to begin.
BABY MASSAGE STEP BY STEP
Start with your baby lying against your legs on his or her back so he or she can look up at you.
Stroke gently down his arms then his legs, repeating each movement five or six times.
Circle round his tummy using the flat of your hand in an anti clockwise direction ( this is very calming).

Stretch out his toes one by one then gently rub over the soles of his feet using your thumb.
Uncurl his fingers then gently move each one clockwise then anti clockwise. Now rub over the palms of his hands with your thumb.
Turn your baby over to lie on his tummy against your legs
Gently rub a little oil into his back, bottom, legs & feet using long light strokes.
stroke down his back giving a little squeeze at the buttocks. Repeat five to six times.
Gently stroke round his shoulders down his arms & off at his hands.
Gently stroke down his legs several times. Each time finish by giving his legs a little stretch by pulling gently at the ankles.
Finish by stroking gently down his back & legs in one movement. Repeat, getting lighter with each stroke, until your hand just glides over your baby without actually touching him.
Gently turn your baby on to his back so he can see you again.
gently stroke a little oil ( the surplus on your hands should be enough) on to his face. lightly stroke up his forehead several times.
With your thumbs stroke across his cheeks then down his nose & chin. Do each movement several times.
Gently squeeze & rub his ear lobes between your fingers & thumb.
Finish off with a connecting stroke. With one hand cradling your baby’s head, stroke gently down his body with the other & bring it to rest on top of his feet. Hold this position ( one hand on the head, the other on the feet) for a count of ten. Gently release & lift of your hands.

CONCLUSION
You will probably find your little bundle of fun will fall to sleep doing this massage, you could always sit lightly rubbing the temples whilst watching them sleep.

These times with your baby will be good bonding times & as a dad myself, you can never have enough of times like this & can look back with fond memories when they grow up !

BABY MASSAGE Massage is very helpful for the healthy development of bones of your baby.
