My oldie is still very active but as a result he gets quite tight across the middle and base of his back. He get the physio/shiatsu lady every few month and endures the treatment (he's a nervy dog and really doesn't take well to being touched by strangers).

She had suggested using a hot water bottle to help soothe his aches and pains but unsurprisingly he's scared of the hot water bottle so I was wondering if there are any muscle rubs or treatments that I can use to help him. I've been shown some massage techniques and stretches to help him but want to make sure I'm doing as much as I can!
 
What about those pillows filled with labvendaer or whatever that you can microwave? would he be less scared of a pillow?
 
we use gold label arnia and witch hazel on our lurchers, horses and ourselves. Our lurchers work 5 nights a week in the winter so need good stuff and this works wonders :)
