"10 stars!! I'm so grateful to have found Lori in my time of need. My dog has been experiencing some pain off and on for about two years, but it was never consistent or debilitating enough to think it was anything more than just her overdoing it at a playdate or on a hike. However, we moved up to a 3rd floor apartment this past July, and then her pain really revved up at the same time. She was having trouble getting up and down the stairs, jumping into my car, and would limp every single morning. I started looking at massage therapists in the area, and Lori's website really stuck out to me for a few reasons.

The first thing I'll note is the price transparency on her website. As a business owner myself, this is a principle that I hold for myself, and I expect others to do so as well. There were many places that would not list their prices.

But the most important thing was the language she used on her website about going at the animal's pace, not forcing them to obey commands to "stay," and allowing them to walk around or even opt out if they want to at any point. You'd be surprised how many professionals in animal med don't know anything about body language or don't believe in consent. As a professional positive reinforcement dog trainer, my dog's (and every animal's) agency is absolutely paramount for me and a total deal breaker if the treatment provider does not agree or understand.
