Perfect for any dog lover interested in exploring alternative health approaches for their pups! About Paw Sha Paw Sha is a modality you can use at home on your own dog to optimize their health! Paw Sha is based on Gua Sha massage, a Traditional Chinese Medicine technique that relieves pain, decreases inflammation, and helps with lymphatic flow. A Gua Sha tool is used as an extension of your hand to glide over your pet’s skin and fur to promote healing. Gua means “to scrape” and Sha means “disease or sand”, and when used on humans it is a firm scraping motion. In our animal patients, a softer touch is used to create the effect we want. Paw Sha is used in treating animals with chronic pain, arthritis, mobility issues, post-surgery recovery, improverelaxation, and many other ailments. Dr. Tori has used this technique on her own dogs, patients, and taught clients how to perform this technique at home with great success! ------------------------------------------------- Follow Paw Sha: ⁠Paw Sha Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow On Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ------------------------------------------------- Give the episode a listen on your favorite podcast platform and let us know what you think!
