Massage for man’s best friend: how canine massage can benefit your dog

Heidi Hesse, owner of Sound Hound Canine Massage, stopped by KARE 11 Saturday to demonstrate the benefits of therapeutic touch for dogs.

MINNEAPOLIS — Dogs bring love and companionship into our lives, but just like humans, they can experience stress, tension, and physical discomfort. That’s where canine massage comes in.

Heidi Hesse, canine massage therapist and owner of Sound Hound Canine Massage, stopped by KARE 11 Saturday to demonstrate the benefits of therapeutic touch for dogs with a few simple techniques that dog owners can try at home. 

Hesse says canine massage has several benefits:

  • Reduces stress and anxiety
  • Improves circulation and flexibility
  • Aids in post-exercise recovery
  • Helps with pain management
  • Strengthens the bond between dog and owner

Hesse recommends incorporating massage into a dog’s routine, even for just a few minutes a day, as a simple yet powerful way to support a dog’s health.

For those looking to learn more, Hesse offers private sessions, workshops, and online resources. Visit soundhoundmassage.com to explore services and connect with her directly.

The Favicon for the website, dogsandpurses(dot)com, features an all-black background with a minimalist line drawing of a puppy's head poking out of a stylish purse. The puppy's head is drawn with a cute and friendly expression, making it the focal point of the design. The purse, which the puppy is emerging from, is depicted with clean, elegant lines. The contrast between the black background and the white line drawing creates a striking and modern look for the Favicon.
