Lori has a passion for helping dogs live happier, pain-free lives. Her journey began with her motivation to help dogs release tension and stiffness they were unable to release on their own. She found that applying The Masterson Method® techniques on dogs from different breeds, ages, and activities had something in common – they all benefited physically and anxiety was improved over time.
As Lori completed each course in The Masterson Method canine certification program, she learned how these techniques can enhance mobility, reduce discomfort, and strengthen the bond between dogs and their owners.
She believes every dog owner can learn how to interpret the subtle body shifts, sighs, and responses from their dog, what those responses indicate about their dog’s well-being, and The Masterson Method techniques their dog can most benefit from. When owners participate in the Read and Release course and the Introducing Movement course, they learn the tools to help their dog move more easily, reduce stiffness, and prevent pain. These skills are especially valuable for aging dogs, active breeds, or those recovering from injury.
Learning The Masterson Method is enlightening for the owner and beneficial for the dog. There is no greater satisfaction than helping dogs live a healthier and more fulfilling life!
