Rates
All treatments - whether it’s massage, rehabilitation or FitPAWS - take place in clients’ homes or at the client’s vet’s clinic.
Massage and Rehabilitation - Canine / Equine
Canine rehabilitation and therapeutic massage sessions cost $105 (+GST) for one hour.
However, the initial consultation takes approximately 2 hours and consists of a full evaluation including gait analysis as well as an hour's massage/rehab. There will be homework! + I provide handouts as well as giving access to treatment videos. This costs $170 (+GST).
Pulsed electro-magnetic field (PEMF) therapy and low-level laser are used where applicable.
During the initial consultation, I will draw up a massage plan tailored to the individual needs of your animal. Evaluation is continually assessed as treatment progresses.
Where the animal is specifically referred by a veterinarian, I will compile a report after the initial evaluation to be sent to that veterinarian.
Equine rehabilitation and therapeutic massage sessions cost $110 (+GST) for 60 mins.
FitPAWS - Canine Fitness Training
Initial FitPAWS sessions last 2 hours and cost $180 (+GST). After assessing your dog, I will compile a detailed list of specific exercises that target balance, flexibility and strength training using either the equipment that you have or I will suggest equipment for you to purchase from a retailer. You can expect at least 20 exercises to really get you started on a fitness program.
Ongoing FitPAWS/fitness training sessions last 1 hour and cost $120 (+GST). The purpose of this is to assess where your dog is at and adjust exercises (or suggest new ones) as necessary.
Please note, that if you live outside the Vancouver area (ie. North or West Vancouver), a mileage/time allowance of $10-15 (depending on location) will be added to the standard massage rate. A cancellation fee amounting to the full price of the appointment will be applied for less than 24 hours’ notice unless I can fill the appointment.
