What is stance analysis? Stance analysis is used to determine if proper weight distribution is used throughout your pets limbs. Dogs naturally bear 60% of their weight in the front limbs and 40% in their back limbs. When your pet has any injury and increase pain in a limb it will cause them to off load the weight of that limb to another. Dogs are very good at hiding their pain, making it difficult to determine which limb is actually bothering them. Canine myo-manipulative functional therapy is canine massage therapy that focuses to restore proper function to the body. Myo-manipulative means making changes to the muscle and functional therapy is defined as addressing dysfunctions in the body's ability to move optimally. Canine Massage therapy is a branch of massage therapy that specifically promotes health in canines. Massage can help with a plethora of things including anxiety, stiff joints and muscles, pain, and circulation. |
