Cost of treatment

I am happy to discuss your concerns free of charge if you have any questions regarding your dogs condition:

Email: kim@macoby.co.uk Telephone: 07983 759975

New to Macoby: Zoom video consults for £25 where I can assess your dogs with a hands off approach but I would be able to perform a gait/posture analysis as well as looking at ways to adapt your environment then we can see if massage will be helpful. It's also a great way to meet each other prior to an appointment.

As I am seeing more reactive dogs post pandemic I also offer meet/greet sessions where we sit to discuss your dog whilst they are getting used to me being in their home. I also try gentle touch, stroking so they can get used to me. This may take a few visits to help build the confidence so depending on your location I only ask for travel costs & not a full consult fee

What happens next?

After I have received your signed Veterinary consent form each treatment is individually tailored to achieve the best outcome for you and your dog whether this is ongoing maintenance, relaxation or rehabilitation from an injury or Orthopaedic issue, currently I provide home visits only.

I aim to produce tangible results in 1-3 sessions

First consultation lasts approximately 1.5 hours £45

During this appointment the following is covered

Gait analysis

Posture analysis

Full body/muscle palpation helping to identify areas of pain and or injury

Full consultation discussing diet, lifestyle, medical history

Approximately 40 minutes clinical canine massage

Tailored plan on how to improve your dogs quality of life

Simple remedial exercises

Working to best practice initially I provide a course of one to three massage sessions each being 7-10 days apart then if we feel this therapy has benefited moving forward I can work out a maintenance program suitable for your dog

Subsequent consultations last approximately 1 hour £40

During this appointment the following is covered:

Review of progress

Gait & posture review

Full body/muscle palpation

Approximately 40 minutes clinical canine massage

I will send your Veterinary Surgeon a full report of my findings and under some circumstances should your dog not be suitable for clinical canine massage therapy I will refer you straight back to your Veterinary Surgeon for further investigation.

I am currently hosting a muscular health check & massage clinic at Ellerdine Village Hall TF6 6QT approximately every 8 weeks

To find out more please get in touch for dates, new clients will need a signed consent form for massage however this will not be necessary for a muscle check/chat

10% discount for multi dog households treated on the same day
Travel expenses apply if over a 15 mile radius of Shropshire this is usually capped at £10
Nail clip & fur trim on pads £5.00 extra

Additional note:

At all times I adhere to the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966 and the Exemption Order 2015 therefore I will need your Veterinary Surgeon to sign a consent form giving me their permission prior to clinical canine massage therapy as this is a legal requirement. This is not needed however for a muscular health check/chat

Whilst I appreciate that there may be times when a treatment needs be cancelled please could you let me know within 24 hours of the appointment as a late cancellation may still result in a full consultation fee being charged

If your dog is taken unwell just prior to the appointment time then please also let me know as soon as possible - no late cancellation fee will apply & we can re arrange your appointment for a later date
