Skin rolling educates tissues, increases circulation, flexibility of elastin in muscle, expresses lymphatics, tugs at interconnected connective tissue.

It’s for all dogs. Practice it on their shoulders and necks. Great with puppies with loose coats. Older dogs may be tight over lumbar and pelvis the result of a lifetime of experiences - dogs may have created some energetic guarding. They are protective of their sexual chakra. Which manifests as physical denseness - energetic armor - over it.

Where do our arm and hand movements of skin rolling start?

Refrence our 8-way breathing video...    • Tai Chi 8-Way Breathing in PetMassage  

All movements begin in the feet and with the breath. Best decisions are from the depth of Gaia energy. From the bottom up-so the feet, not the head. Straight up, up with a twist. Be sure to work with the dog- not on the dog.

Key: observe body language. Listen to body. Grasp the skin and coat, lift with your inhale, hold, wait, and when the tissues begin to retract, release. Do not release back until the dog signals you that they are ready.

Hold and observe the gentle tug to balance from within.
