In this podcast episode, I interview Katie, a canine massage therapist based just outside Nottingham in the UK Midlands. Katie shares her journey into canine massage therapy, initially sparked by her own dog's diagnosis with hip dysplasia and arthritis. She discusses her training at Galen Therapy Centre and with Dr. Edward Bassingthwaighte in Whole Energy Body Balance, emphasizing a holistic approach combining physical and emotional wellness. Katie talks about the variety of conditions she treats, including arthritis, injuries, and anxiety among dogs, utilizing massage to improve their quality of life. We unpack some of the typical misconceptions around dog care, particularly the impact of certain exercises on a dog's health. And we touch on Katy's business's growth, transitioning from marketing to canine massage full-time, and her plans for offering online consultations and workshops.00:00 Welcome and Introduction00:22 Discovering Canine Massage Therapy01:05 Journey to Becoming a Full-time Canine Massage Therapist04:05 The Impact of Canine Massage on Dogs11:22 Addressing Common Myths and Misconceptions15:24 Expanding Services and Future Plans16:31 How to Connect and Learn MoreTo find out more and get in touch with Katy:The website: https://timeforpooch.co.uk/The Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/timeforpoochAll about Soul Touched by Dogs at https://soultouchedbydogs.com
