Muscles & More

Muscles & More Canine Myofunctional Therapy (CMT) is muscle therapy specifically for dogs. CMT helps to improve performance, increase range of motion and mobility of the dog.

Muscles & More offers Canine Myofunctional Therapy to all dogs, helping to improve performance, range of motion, pain and discomfort associated with aging and arthritic changes and assists in the total well being of the dog. Janine Fraser uses specialized techniques to utilize primarily through the use of pressure from the hands. By directly treating the soft tissue muscles and indirectly the deeper muscles the whole dog benefits from this type of treatment. CMT causes muscles to fill with rich oxygenated blood flow and increase circulation; which hastens the elimination of wastes and toxic build-up. The techniques applied also affect and support the circulatory, lymphatic, vascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, nervous, endocrine, and muscular systems. Janine has seen many wonderful results and knows CMT promotes and restores biomechanical functioning and range of motion. With the alleviation of muscle tension, soreness, stress and spasms from fatigued muscles, this can naturally increase efficiency. What does this mean for your dog? Whatever the dogs needs are: working dogs, show dogs, hunting or just needing all round better health for our โ€˜best mateโ€™ and companion then Janine Fraser will help you achieve this. With a down to earth, straight forward language and a hands on approach โ€˜Great things can happenโ€™. Call today to talk about how Janine Fraser can make a difference.

โ €
The lessons that matter most donโ€™t come from the easy sessions.
They come from the ones that sit with you afterwards.
โ €
Some dogs have shown me very clearly what they need from me.
โ €
Dogs whose nervous systems are already in overdrive donโ€™t need to be worked through.
They need safety ๐Ÿค
They need space ๐ŸŒฟ
They need time to feel, settle, and trust ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ
โ €
This is why I value one on one work so deeply.
It allows me to listen, to feel what the dog is telling me, and to support them without pressure.
โ €
Every dog teaches me something.
And I carry those lessons into the next session, and the next dog.
โ €
Thatโ€™s how I keep learning.
Thatโ€™s how I do better.

I want to share something personal, because I know many others feel this too, even if they are scared to say it out loud.

The pain I feel about Dooley is real and it is physical. It sits in my chest and has weight. ๐๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ข๐ญ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐ซ๐ž๐ ๐ซ๐ž๐ญ. I do not wish I had done more or differently. Dooley lived a full, rich, deeply loved life.

๐–๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐ก๐ฎ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ก๐ž๐ซ.

For nearly sixteen years, Dooley was my shadow. I never had to look for her, she was just always there. When a presence like that is part of your everyday life for so long, your body notices when it is gone before your head can make sense of it.

This kind of grief is often misunderstood. ๐ˆ๐ญ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐š๐๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฐ๐š๐ฒ ๐ฉ๐ž๐จ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ž ๐ž๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ž๐œ๐ญ. It is love that had somewhere to go every single day, and now that love has nowhere physical to land. That is why it feels so heavy.

I am sharing this because ๐๐จ๐ ๐ฌ ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ ๐ฌ ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿค
They are family. They are constant companions and quiet witnesses to our lives. Losing them leaves a very real space.
