I had a wonderful session with FureverBond pet massage therapy today. My kitty, Charlie Chaplin, has always loved the attention and pets he gets at our fear-free clinic. So, when he developed a slight limp over the past two weeks, I thought I would try Massage/Acupressure therapy. I have used deep tissue and myofascial massage to help me, so I thought I would try it for Charlie. I was more than pleased, I was amazed! I recognized the same signs of relaxation and relief that I have experienced for myself in massage therapy. By the middle of the session, his body had completely relaxed, and his little head dropped down on the table, completely relaxed. We felt the muscle areas before and after, so I could tell the difference. He has been so calm the rest of the day. Watching him relax helps me relax.
Massage may not be for every cat (or person), but I was very impressed today. No meowing. Only minimal wiggling as the session started. And the “touch” used for cats is so much lighter than what is used for humans. The therapist provided me with massage techniques to use at home!!

“Raquel has been an amazing source of support for us and our fur-child, Axel. When we first met Raquel, Axel was very fear reactive, even when offered treats. But through her patience, compassion, and empathetic approach, Raquel has helped Axel feel safer and more comfortable. She has become one of his favorite people, and now Axel jumps for joy whenever he sees her! Moreover, Raquel has interacted with us owners with understanding and kindness, teaching and empowering us to be better dog-parents. She is very knowledgeable and is always in tune with Axel’s body language, cues, and signals, and she passes that knowledge down to us. We feel more confident as dog-parents and can better understand Axel’s communications. Thank you, Raquel!”

“Raquel is straight-up a dog whisperer. When I met Raquel over 6 years ago, I was instantly impressed with her cool, calm demeanor and ability to work with animals. I trust our two pitbulls with her completely and wish she was still close by to work with them more! We have never found anyone as talented and effective as Raquel. She is an amazing person and has a unique ability in working with animals (and people too!). Her own dog is the most impressive animal you will meet and demonstrates how talented she is. I highly recommend Raquel as she is simply the best!”
