what about us felines.

I’m Nicky and I run Kanedu Clinical Canine Massage. 

I am a registered veterinary nurse, clinical canine massage practitioner and have a BSAVA vet nurse merit award in rehabilitation and physiotherapy.

With over 20 years experience in the veterinary profession, assisting vets with pets of all types, breeds and sizes, with varying conditions, I felt there was a missing link holistically in supporting our beloved pets with acute and chronic conditions, and rehabilitation following operations.

A tactile person, I’ve always used touch to help soothe the animals in my care, and in association with my Veterinary Practice I trained with the internationally renowned Canine Massage Therapy Centre Ltd for 2 years to become a Clinical Canine Massage Practitioner accredited by Lantra in 2016.  

I now use these skills with success in and outside the practice.

I am a member of both the RCVS Nurses register and the professional association The Canine Massage Guild and adhere to best practice stipulations.  Through both my roles, I attend regular CPD education to keep my skills up to date and to learn new ones, helping me to continue to provide the best possible care for the dogs I help.

I am looking forward to helping as many dogs as I can in a natural way, so if you would like to know more,

please get in touch, so my touch can help.

In 2018, I had the privilege in taking part in clinical trials on the efficacy of massage with the guild, the results speak for themselves. To have a read and see that massage really does work, click the link below:-
