In Karen's opinion dogs are cherished members of the family, she is pleased to bring her skills, and knowledge to Ottawa. She was an instructor at St. Clair College in Windsor, so all this experience has brought to light just how valuable an asset this is to contributing to the health and welfare of animals. She provides complimentary veterinary services that aid in the recovery of animal injury, surgery recovery, degenerative disease joint pain and obesity.
There also an increasingly high interest in canine therapeutic massage as this practice is a holistic approach to complement with veterinary care, in treating and rehabilitating injuries and conditions. As well as maintaining an overall prevention to wellness.
*Cranial sacral therapy
"A gentle hands-on form of healing"
CST is a safe, non-invasive technique, balancing the innate healing abilities of the meningeal system, between the cranium (skull bones) to sacrum (tail bone) bringing with it lasting and beneficial results.
