Dog Acupressure for Shoulder Arthritis: Back Shoulder Seam

Video Transcript

"The next point we are going to work on is shoulder seam or triple heater 14. It is in the same basic area, you are going to go down a little bit further and back a little bit more. Again your finger is going to fall into the hole and you spend time in straight up and down pressure on that point is best if you are really having trouble finding that point it is fine for you to go ahead and massage that whole area but it is best if you can actually find that point, let your finger fall into it, keep steady one minute pressure on that, if you can't find it or you are not sure you've found it go ahead and massage that whole area and that will pick up the three shoulder points. By going all the way down to the elbow point back up and around in a nice big circle, again you want to do both sides because the leg that isn't injured is going most of the weight of the body and it is going to be very important that you support that side as well especially for relieving pain and stiffness so that the animal moves freely."
