About the Instructor: Instructor Lisa Lucas is certified in canine massage through Integrated Touch Therapy, Inc. in Circleville, Ohio - a suburb of Columbus. The training was based on Swedish maintenance massage and pre-event and post-event sports massage for the animal athlete. Lisa is a recreational musher and serves as trainer and coach for five Siberian Huskies. Together they cover many miles of trail each Fall and Winter and Lisa constantly works to improve their stamina and performance. Lisa has found that not only does massage improve the condition and health of her dogs, but it also opens a level of communication that impacts the dogs' training and their ability to focus and learn. Massage, combined with a basic understanding of dog behavior and "calming signals" takes the human-dog bond to a whole different level. Contact Lisa at 276-9118 by email to schedule a private lesson.
