Podcast Katy Conway - Don't let your dog suffer in silence

In this podcast episode, I interview Katie, a canine massage therapist based just outside Nottingham in the UK Midlands. 

Katie shares her journey into canine massage therapy, initially sparked by her own dog's diagnosis with hip dysplasia and arthritis. She discusses her training at Galen Therapy Centre and with Dr. Edward Bassingthwaighte in Whole Energy Body Balance, emphasizing a holistic approach combining physical and emotional wellness. 

Katie talks about the variety of conditions she treats, including arthritis, injuries, and anxiety among dogs, utilizing massage to improve their quality of life. 

We unpack some of the typical misconceptions around dog care, particularly the impact of certain exercises on a dog's health. 

And we touch on Katy's business's growth, transitioning from marketing to canine massage full-time, and her plans for offering online consultations and workshops.
