What is Myotherapy? Myotherapy is more than just massage. Myotherapy includes a full postural assessment of your dog, targeted massage techniques together with exercise management to enhance mobility and optimize muscle function. How can it help your dog? Myotherapy can be extremely effective for treating dogs with chronic muscular pain to promote recovery and wellbeing. For many conditions such as:
Lameness
Repetitive strain injuries
Behavioural issues (these can often stem from a dog being in discomfort)
Compensatory muscle loading issues
Osteoarthritis
Sub-luxating patella
Myotherapy can also be very effective for helping to maintain the musculoskeletal health of working or competing dogs

Compensation

Dogs are incredibly adaptable.

When one area becomes less efficient, another often works harder.

These compensations can become normal for the dog—even though they're not optimal.

Loading

Dogs don't always distribute weight evenly.

Changes in loading can occur for many reasons and may influence posture, movement and muscular effort.

Recognising these patterns helps build a more complete picture.

Fascia

Fascia connects the entire body.

It helps distribute force, supports movement and contributes to communication between different regions of the body.

Understanding fascia helps explain why a problem in one area can influence another.

Chronic pain is complex.

It is not always linked to a single injury or condition and can be influenced by factors such as compensation patterns, muscular tension, previous injuries, and mobility changes.

Dogs experiencing chronic pain may show subtle signs including changes in movement, posture, behaviour, performance, or sleep.

Because chronic pain is multifactorial, support often involves a multidisciplinary approach to help improve comfort, mobility, function, and quality of life; and this is where a Galen Myotherapist is an invaluable member of your dog’s team.

Huge thank you to the awesome team Marlborough Kennel Association (Inc) scent work for putting on a brilliant course (and for putting up with Skyla’s voice 😬)
