Meet Your Instructor:
Dr Ansi van der Walt
Ansi van der Walt is a veterinary physiotherapist specialising in canine rehabilitation and mobility. She has helped countless dogs recover from injury, manage arthritis, and stay comfortable and active through tailored movement and hands-on therapy.
Her passion is empowering caring dog owners with safe, practical skills so they can confidently support their dog’s comfort, mobility, and overall wellbeing between vet and physio visits.
Why I Created Paws & Stretch
Every day I meet devoted owners who ask the same heartfelt question:
“What can I do at home to help my dog feel better?”
They want to do more than simply watch and worry - they want to actively support their dog’s comfort and recovery. But many feel unsure about what is safe, what actually helps, and where to begin.
As a veterinary physiotherapist, I see every day how powerful the right kind of touch can be. Gentle, well-applied massage can ease tension, improve circulation, support mobility, and help dogs relax—especially when they’re ageing, recovering from injury, or living with stiffness.
Paws & Stretch: Canine Massage Mastery was created to bridge that gap.
This course translates proven physiotherapy principles into simple, safe techniques you can use at home, giving you the confidence to support your dog between professional visits.
The routines are designed for real life with real dogs—practical, easy to follow, and a beautiful way to deepen your connection with your dog.
You don’t need special equipment or prior experience.
Just a warm heart, gentle hands, and the desire to help your dog feel their best.
