Set slightly apart from the bustle and excitement at Goodwoof, the ultimate dogs’ day out, lies an oasis of calm, serenity and healing in The Studio, presented by health assessment professionals, Randox Health. This special place where dogs, and their owners, can take a breath, offers a wealth of calming and healing activities led by renowned experts who happily pass on their knowledge and expertise to dog owners keen to practise new beneficial activities with their hounds at home. From dog yoga, DOGA, to reiki, sound-bathing and canine holistic health advice, these free sessions were very well attended earlier this year.

One such expert to be found in The Studio throughout the Goodwoof weekend and who is looking forward to returning on Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 May 2023, is holistic vet nurse, Lilo Ask-Henriksen. Based at the My Human Townhouse in King’s Road, Chelsea, Norwegian-born Lilo is an In-Resident Therapist there. She qualified as a veterinary nurse in 2012 with a particular expertise and passion in nutrition, medical laser therapy and animal massage. She said, “Canine massage is a powerful tool to use as part of the natural healing process of the body. Massage is a non-invasive therapy which is beneficial to a dog in so many ways. For instance, they may need rehabilitation after a muscular injury, or an ageing dog could have arthritis which restricts their mobility.
Lilo’s healing hands can ease aches and pains from tense and over-worked muscles and says that the benefits of her work are plentiful.
Massage not only addresses immediate issues, but also aids the overall well-being of a dog, helping to maintain their immune system too.

In fact, Lilo has seen that dogs who receive regular massage, whether they are athletic agility competitors, family pets who love to run and chase or simply elderly, much-loved companions who need support and pain relief, can all enjoy a much-improved quality of life.
At Goodwoof, Lilo meets with owners who watch as she carries out a short assessment before offering a small amount of therapeutic massage. Dogs are instantly put at ease by her serene and caring professionalism as she talks quietly and reassuringly to them.
She says, “Of course, I can’t carry out my full assessment at Goodwoof, as I need much longer to get to know a dog and its needs as well as talk to the owner about the dog’s lifestyle and general health and activity level, but it’s wonderful to be able to spend time with so many different dogs over the weekend. I am always happy to let dog owners know about the very many benefits of canine massage as well as the other therapies we carry out at My Human Townhouse which are all designed to give a dog the happiest and healthiest life possible.”
