Bunny Massage Class
The Bunny Massage class is a one-hour hands-on class for any bunny and their doting human, presented by MCRS educator and physical therapist, Laura F.
The benefits of massage for rabbits include: reducing stress and muscle tension, building trust between animal and human to help with socialization, loosening joints to allow better range of motion and providing pain relief for older buns. It also provides stress relief for the human involved. During the class you will learn basic rabbit anatomy and areas that they carry tension, how to feel the different layers of tissue to target the area that is tight, some basic massage strokes and a basic massage routine you can use on your rabbit.
The class size is kept small to allow one on one time with the instructor. If you do not wish to bring your rabbit to the class, toy rabbits will be provided for practice of the techniques.
The class is held at various locations around the Twin Cities. To find out when the next class is scheduled near you, see our events calendar. Registration is free, but donations are accepted and appreciated. Please note: space is limited and registration is REQUIRED.
