Had the pleasure of attending a pre and post event workshop and Claire was fabulous. A very patient and knowledgeable teacher. We learned lots and had a brilliant day!

Claire has been treating my 6 year old Labrador, Brodie, since September 2017, after he was diagnosed with arthritis in July, as a result of surgery for bilateral cruciate ligament rupture when he was a puppy. After assessing Brodie she recommended a monthly massage for 3 months, followed by a maintenance programme of quarterly treatments. Claire really knows her stuff and is extremely thorough, and excellent at what she does. Brodie has been doing so much better since Claire has been treating him, he is less stiff and moves more easily. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Claire and I am sure that Brodie feels the benefits of the massage therapy, as he is always super excited to see her! Thank you Claire

Attended the pre & Post event massage course with Claire. Absolutely brilliant, can't recommend it enough. I would say you don't have to have a dog involved with agility to still get a lot from the course as many of the principles are transferable to other settings and activity levels. I have an ageing staffy who was starting to struggle to keep up with the hill walks and running, and I found the information and techniques absolutely applicable to our situation too. Claire was brilliant. Communication in the lead up to the course was really good so you knew what to expect and what to prepare for the day. There was no nervousness or feeling of going in to the unexpected which was brilliant for me as my dog can be quite unsure of certain situations. Claire's evident experience and foresight with a few things meant that we could plan accordingly to avoid upsetting the dog (even simple things like planning the room so that we were near the door). There was obviously a certain structure and plan to the day which those of us in attendance pretty much obliterated with all our questions! Claire was able to answer all questions, adapt the course structure as we went along and respond to the very different needs and personalities of the dogs in the room. She clearly knows her stuff! Fab setting for the course and a really enjoyable day all round, especially for the dog who has never been so chilled out. Following the course Claire was also great in helping me source a registered practitioner closer to home, so my dog will shortly be attending her first appointment and hopefully go on to be a very healthy and happy geriatric thanks to canine massage!
