about me

  • I am a  Certified Small Animal Massage Practitioner (#AS 60263782), which requires 300  hours of training and passing of a test administered by the National Board of Certification of Acupressure and Animal Massage (NBCAAM). I obtained my training through the Northwest School of Animal Massage which included anatomy, physiology, behavior, kinesiology, first aid, pain management and pathological conditions. Massage techniques for: orthopedic conditions, neurological conditions, surgical conditions, canine cancer and senior canine conditions.

  • My focus has been on Maintenance and Rehabilitation  massage, and my goal is to help healthy animals stay healthy, and aid others to regain their health, or maximize their quality of life while managing a chronic condition. 
  • Rehabilitation massage helps an animal during recovery after surgery or trauma. 

  • REIKI Master      

  • Other areas of study include: Ttouch, Behavior and Canine Training techniques, and I continue to learn about the ever expanding world of care for our dogs and  cats.
