Bringing over a decade of human massage experience and my natural compassion for animal companions to my practice. I offer a unique blend of expertise and empathy. My background working with animals includes volunteering and employment at shelters, sanctuaries, and barns providing bodywork, as well as training in Barn-Aid, Cat/Dog First Aid, Pet CPR, Dog Handling, Agility, and Horse Care & Handling.
City girl with southern roots originally from Cincinnati, now living in the Colony, Texas. I've been practicing the Healing Arts of Massage Therapy for 13 years. Licensed by the State of Ohio Medical Board and Texas TDLR. With a passion to nurture, provide and restore comfort to all living things. It was 2020 when I began transferring my professional focus from humans to animals. I sought a way to combine my passions of Massage Therapy and my lifelong love for animals.
My diverse background in Massage Therapy industry includes working in chiropractic offices, hospice care, running my own practice for 8 years, and collaborating with spas. I've had the privilege of working with professional and college athletes, as well as being a massage educator. I've been recognized nationally for my expertise, appeared on television sharing my knowledge, and received prestigious awards for my contributions to massage therapy field. I'm excited to bring specialized animal massage services to the Dallas Area.
The finest compliment I can ever receive is a referral from my friends, family, clients and neighbors! I also receive massage referrals from veterinarians, animal behaviorists/trainers, rehabilitation facilities, boarding/grooming/daycare facilities and private referrals.
Animal Massage?
Yes, It's A Thing!
Whether you have a miniature rabbit or enormous elephant. I've got the skills and passion to give them the best care possible. From post-op recovery to quality-of-life enhancement, trust me for all your animal needs.
Fun Fact:
I once massaged Kangaroos!
Did you know?
Kangaroos are actually pretty buff animals! Made up of 50% muscle mass. They are the largest marsupial on the globe. They might require extra massage and stretching to their strong left arm. Because Kangaroos are left-handed. Researchers have found that they use their left hand for common tasks such as grooming and eating about 95% of the time.

***Before scheduling, it is important to remember that massage therapy is not a replacement for veterinary care but a complementary therapy to aid in animal wellness. A veterinarian consent form is required before first session.
BODYWORK
Massage therapy is a type of manual bodywork that uses gentle, noninvasive techniques to support the body's natural systems. Many of the same benefits of massage therapy for humans, such as relaxation and reduced muscle tension, also apply to our four-legged companions. Massage therapy can have both broad and specific benefits, depending on the techniques utilized.
ANIMAL REIKI
Non-Manipulative Touch for animals small and large. Reiki is a safe and gentle “complementary” therapy that activates the parasympathetic nervous system to heal body and mind. It has potential for broader use in management of chronic health conditions, and possibly in postoperative recovery.

Paws-itive Affects
Massage for your pet offers the same benefits as it does for humans. It helps us loosen a furkid's tight muscles, relax a pet and improve circulation. Depedning on a pet's need and comfort level, a massage may be brief or extended.
01
Massage provides excellent support for recovery from injuries and surgeries.
02
Massage eases discomfort and encourages movement.
03
Nervous and anxious animals can learn and enjoy relaxing through massage.
04
Dogs and horses are natural athletes. They deserve to be treated like an athlete. Anything requiring movement depends on well-functioning muscle to prevent injury.
RECOVERY & PREVENTION
Massage is a holistic form of healing that aids in restoring balance and increases an individual’s overall wellness. When used in combination with veterinary care, massage provides numerous benefits.
