Massage Techniques for your Pet!

1.  Invite your pet to lie down on warm surface. 
2. Always start off with a warm up by stroking slowly on your pet's head or pat them on the good spots that you know to relieve stress. 
3. Then gently rub in circular motion behind your pet's ear to the neck to calm the nerves.
4. Slowly move on to gentle rub on the legs to release muscle tension. 
5. Finish off with a light massage on the belly.
