Find your nearest Galen Myotherapist for hands-on myofascial massage treatment, rehabilitation programmes for chronic musculoskeletal conditions, and emotional health support. Every treatment is completely tailored to your dog and their individual condition. We work closely with you throughout the process, providing clear guidance and support every step of the way.

Galen Myotherapy delivers effective pain management and measurable results, often within just 1-3 sessions. We are specialists in pain, behaviour, and canine wellbeing, with extensive experience working with sensitive dogs and those who may struggle with handling or touch. Using gentle, effective myofascial massage treatment techniques, we help dogs feel safe, comfortable, and supported throughout their therapy. 

As part of our approach, we carry out pain and behaviour assessments using the Galen Comfort Scale®, alongside detailed postural assessments before treatment begins. This allows us to better understand your dog’s comfort, movement, emotional wellbeing, and overall physical health

Your dog will always be given ‘choice’ using our unique Positive PACT® treatment protocol. We never use forced restraint and treatment will always take place on the floor or on a low level, where a dog is most comfortable.

All Galen Myotherapists are fully qualified and insured and only work with dogs that have veterinary consent that adheres to the 1966 UK Veterinary Act.
