Description
Book Introduction
Effective for 'diet', 'cold', 'back pain', 'bowel problems', etc.
Keep your cat healthy with a simple massage!


Just like people, cats are now entering an aging era.
As the lifespan of cats has increased significantly due to the development of preventive veterinary medicine and the growth of pet culture, cat owners cannot help but worry about how to keep their cats healthy.
This book is the first in Korea to introduce cat massage, which helps keep cats healthy before they get sick, while also building trust between the cat and its owner through physical contact.

The book is a true preventative medicine that protects cats' health before they get sick, rather than responding to illness afterward.
The simple act of touching and touching cats without thinking in real life actually stimulates the meridians, acupoints, and lymphatics. Therefore, if cat owners learn about cat meridians, acupoints, and lymphatics, it can be of great help not only in preventing but also in treating their cats' illnesses.
Or, rather than viewing illness or trouble as a simple problem, it is to help achieve a balance between mind and body by observing the causes of the cat's physical and mental problems and emotional changes.
By regularly massaging your cat, you can improve blood circulation, supply more oxygen to the cells, and effectively eliminate waste products.


Additionally, by continuously spending time in direct contact with your cat, you will be able to build trust between you and your cat, and this psychological effect will further improve the relationship between you and your cat.
This book is written with illustrations to help readers understand, so anyone can learn it easily.

Into the book
The theory of yin and yang is used in many fields, and in Oriental medicine, the entire body is divided into yin and yang.
In Oriental medicine, it is believed that illness occurs when the balance of yin and yang is disrupted, and natural healing is the process of restoring this disrupted balance.
Acupressure and massage are meant to enhance that natural healing power.

The body of animals, including humans, has thick meridians running horizontally, and thin veins running vertically, surrounding it like the grid of a net.
The meridians and veins are collectively called meridians, and the energy (氣), blood (血), and water (水) that regulate and maintain the balance of the animal's body and mind flow through the meridians.

---p.28

When a cat lacks exercise, the lymphatic vessels do not receive adequate pressure, which impairs the flow of lymph fluid.
Lymph fluid also has difficulty flowing when blood circulation is poor due to cold air or hypothermia, or when stress causes blood vessels to constrict or muscles to tense.
Additionally, lymph flow may be blocked due to decreased frequency of urination, excessive salt intake, or aging.

A recent study reported that 40% of cats are obese.
There are many causes of obesity, including obesity due to neutering, unhealthy eating habits, and obesity due to stress.
Although obesity is not a disease, it causes diseases such as back pain, heart failure, diabetes, cancer, and atopy.
To combat obesity, you should also consider reducing the amount of cat food containing a lot of sugar and fat, along with massage.
--- p.73

Cats also often experience bowel problems such as constipation, loose stools, and diarrhea.
There are many causes, including picky eating, skipping meals, drinking too little water, lack of exercise, stress, and obesity.
Older cats also often suffer from constipation or loose stools.
In Oriental medicine, the same acupoints are stimulated when you have diarrhea or constipation.
Here we introduce a stool massage that improves problems such as diarrhea, loose stools, and constipation.

A cold is a disease caused by a virus that invades the body of an animal, causing symptoms such as headache, fever, chills, body aches, rhinitis, and coughing. It occurs throughout the year, but is most common in early spring and winter.
Let's try massage not only to help treat colds, but also to prevent colds.

Publisher's Review
Pets depend on people,
People live healed by their companion animals.


Nowadays, there are a whopping 10 million people who live their lives with companion animals.
Now, living together with people and pets has become a duty rather than a choice.
As such, pets are an essential part of people's lonely lives, and the companionship culture of people and pets is gradually growing.


The most regrettable thing about living with pets is the inability to communicate verbally.
Although we can guess what our pets want when they make certain facial expressions or what they feel when they make certain facial expressions, based on our experiences and habits, it is very unfortunate that we cannot 100% understand our pets' thoughts and actions and care for them accordingly.


One of the most frustrating times, especially when you can't communicate, is when your pet is sick.
Among pets, cats are known to have a high tolerance for pain, but they usually do not show it much even when they are in pain.
So, cat owners can't help but feel anxious and uneasy when their cats don't eat well, have no energy, vomit, or cough badly, wondering if something is seriously wrong.


Although advances in medicine have significantly extended the lifespan of cats, increasing the chances of successful treatment when they are sick or ill, this is only possible if cats can receive treatment at the appropriate time when it is needed.
It's never easy to pinpoint exactly where and how your pet is hurting, especially if they have difficulty communicating.
In the case of pets that do not show any signs of pain, such as cats, it is often difficult to treat them because the timing is missed.


How can we keep our cats healthy and free from illness?

Veterinarians Takashi Ishino and Mana Aizawa began to ponder what was most needed in the field of treating companion animals.
Of course, from the pet owner's perspective, the biggest wish is for their pet to live a healthy life without getting sick.
The author has spent a long time researching both the East and the West on how cats can live healthy lives without getting sick.
And finally, [cat massage], which combines the Chinese traditional medical meridian and acupoint massage with the Western medical lymphatic massage, was introduced into the medical field.


[Cat massage] can be said to be a true form of preventive medicine that can help us maintain our cats' health in our daily lives.
Rather than responding after your cat gets sick, it is a way to keep them healthy before they get sick.
By breaking down the various symptoms that cats can develop and stimulating the meridians and acupoints related to the balance of yin and yang, it can help with prevention as well as treatment.
If your cat has a cold, massaging the cat's acupuncture points, such as Indang, Pungji, and Yeomcheon, can help prevent the cold. If your cat has troubles such as otitis media or external otitis, massaging the Imun, Cheonggung, Pungji, and Johae can be very effective.


This book contains everything about such [cat massage].
Easy-to-understand illustrations are provided so that anyone can easily follow along and protect their cat's health.
The simple act of touching and touching cats without thinking in real life actually stimulates the meridians, acupoints, and lymphatics. Therefore, if cat owners learn about cat meridians, acupoints, and lymphatics, it can be of great help not only in preventing but also in treating their cats' illnesses.


The author, a veterinarian who cares for companion animals, has been able to see many cats regain a healthy life through [cat massage] for several years.
And with the small wish of living a healthy and energetic life for a longer time with my lovely cats, I published [Cat Massage] as a book.
I hope this book will help cats live healthy and peaceful lives.
