31 in 31 #24 Dog Massage and Human Massage



31 in 31 – Dog Massage and Human Massage

A few weeks ago, a human massage person (Lyn) invited me to join her in her tent at a weekly on-going farmer’s market. She would do human massage (in a massage chair) and I would massage the dogs on a soft pad on the ground. We originally thought a person would come by with their dog and it would all happen at once. What has happened is that the people who want massages go to her and other people with their dogs come to me. For example, yesterday I got to massage a Mastiff. What a wild and fun event. Many children came running over as the large and gentle Mastiff lay down on the pad and drooled happiness. I explained to the children and the adults how to do massage and why the dog was so happy. Noticing all this Lyn asked if I would like to teach a seminar to dog owners at her wellness center and we are now planning the details. I told her about my idea to do in-home care for recovering pets and she was interested in participating. Turns out she has a lot of medical experience and knowledge. As with so many people I meet these days (myself included), the key word is TRANSITION. Lyn and I will think and plan together over the next few weeks and I won’t be surprised if something very good emerges over the next few months.
