Is Animal Massage Legal in Your State?
Dr. Angelique Barbara is an excellent instructor who always answers emails promptly and thoroughly. I was very impressed with her level of knowledge, and how well she organized the Canine Myo-manipulative Functional Therapy Course. She cares a lot about her students and our canine companions! I would highly recommend any of her courses"

As a veterinary professional with over 10 years experience, I'm always looking for options that can help our furry friends live the most fulfilling and pain free life possible. In our certified animal rehabilitation practice we use multiple modalities to help improve mobility and quality of life. When I began considering expanding my knowledge and earning a certification in canine massage, I researched many different programs across the country but none seemed to be exactly what I was looking for until I came across Dr Angel's Holistic Animal Studies. The self paced online program in Canine Massage (CMFT) was a perfect fit for me. The information provided within the course combined with the assignments, exams, case study and hands on requirements both held me accountable and helped me learn in a comprehensive manner. We've been able to offer both therapeutic and medical (site specific) massage as an added benefit to our patients. The veterinarians feel comfortable enough with my training and knowledge to pull me into appointments as needed to help explain and demonstrate some at home massage to pet parents as well as us being able to now offer massage as a stand alone option within as practice. I'm so glad I came across this program and plan on taking additional courses to continue to build upon my abilities."

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly will I be certified in and who is the certification by? You will be certified by Angel's Animals -Holistic Seminars as a Certified Canine Myo-manipulative Functional Therapist. The certification implies that you are proficient in the techniques taught in this course. The certification is not affiliated with any state licensing and the practitioner must check their local laws before practicing.
Do I need access to a dog to take this course? Yes, you must have at least one dog available to practice the techniques on.
Why do I need experience handling dogs before taking this course? Dogs can bite, especially when they are in pain or scared. While Dr. Barbara goes over safe handling and dog behavior in the course, it is important to have real life experience with dogs to safely practice massage and physical therapy.
Will this course allow me to sit for the NBCAAM board exam? No, since NBCAAM requires in person classroom time and this course is completely online, it will not qualify you to sit for their exam. Completing this course will NOT qualify you to practice animal massage in states that require the NBCAAM exam.
What are the animal massage laws in my state? Since laws are always changing I encourage you to look up your state's laws before practicing. Here is a link of the laws by state.
