Massage is a relaxing healing treatment that engenders a feeling of well-being in both human and non-human recipients. Rabbits benefit from massage because it may help them to relax and it may also improve certain medical conditions. Additionally, if a rabbit has become distrustful of humans for any reason, massage can help socialize the bunny to human contact.
Chandra Moira Beal became a licensed massage therapist after a special mini lop named Maia entered her life. Ms. Beal noted the health benefits of daily massage for her bunny and authored The Relaxed Rabbit: Massage for Your Pet Bunny. She also developed massage workshops for rabbits and their humans. About this alternative treatment, Ms. Beal says:
Massage is touch with a healing purpose. I believe that the intention (the aim or purpose) guiding the massage is as important as the bodywork itself, and that positive intent is a calming and healing force.
Massage specifically works the soft tissues of the body (i.e., the muscles and connective tissue) and mechanically affects blood and lymph circulation as well as the nervous system. Although massage is not for every condition [reference “When to Use Caution”], there are myriad ways in which rabbits benefit from the work, including:
Increased range of motion in the joints.
Improved peristalsis and elimination, keeping a bunny’s gut moving.
“Exercise” for ill or disabled rabbits. Because massage strokes lengthen and contract the muscle fibers, it’s like a form of exercise, although not a substitute for it. Massage is something humans can do if a rabbit is ill or injured and must be confined for a period of time.
Increased circulation of blood and lymph. Massage helps maintain strong immunity by delivering oxygen to and removing metabolic wastes from every cell.
Temporary relief of physical discomfort caused by selective breeding (e.g., the weight of a lop’s ears pulling on the head and neck muscles).
Release of emotional baggage and establishment of trust. Rabbits who have been abused or neglected often equate human touch with pain. Reprogramming them with calm, positive touch can help them heal from trauma. (Tellington TTouch® is good for this, too.)
Increased chance of survival. It especially helps those rabbits who are housed alone, including at a shelter where they live with rabbits in the same room, but not in the same cage.
Easing stress from traveling, visits to the veterinarian, changes in the household (e.g., new people or animals), changes in the environment (e.g., location of the rabbit condo), and interruption of routine (e.g., late meals).
Possible recovery from head tilt, if caught very early. For bunnies living with a chronic condition, massage can be very comforting and a high point in their day.
Comfort for deaf and blind bunnies – helps orient blind bunnies in their space.
Familiarity with the rabbit’s body and health, so any changes can be quickly recognized and addressed.
A bunny should be handled regularly (preferably daily) as a way to bond and to keep tabs on his or her health. Routinely touching a rabbit’s body alerts the guardian to weight loss (sometimes hidden under all that fur) and the development of other health problems. Ms. Beal shares her experience with this:
People have found jaw abscesses, benign lumps, cysts, small scabs, and sores. They’ve been surprised to discover (whether by feel or because the bunny pulls away) knots between the shoulder blades and areas of tension on their rabbits that might not otherwise be found.
A caregiver can find these areas of tension when giving their rabbit a light-touch massage. “Tension” is distinct from normal body tissue because it is less smooth and pliable than the surrounding tissue, and it has distinct borders. For example, you might detect something that feels like a small pea, a piece of rope, or, as you roll your fingers over the area, a ridge.
It’s important to note that massage isn’t for every condition. In fact, there are times when it’s contraindicated. For example, massage is not recommended after all types of surgery, and it’s generally not done when the bunny has an infection or disease because massage can spread pathogens through the blood and lymph systems. Since digestive issues are often secondary to some other illness or injury, it may be that the rabbit should not be massaged when there is digestive upset. In addition, massaging a rabbit with a serious digestive problem could result in rupturing the stomach, intestine, or cecum. Having your rabbit treated by a qualified veterinarian and following the prescribed home-care regimen are of paramount importance.
Before massaging, a bunny’s guardian should always take the rabbit’s health into consideration. I tend to be really cautious when it comes to surgery and digestive issues, so I would never massage without the blessing of a veterinarian who is skilled in the treatment of rabbits. In addition, it’s helpful for a person to know how their bunny’s tummy normally feels by doing some gentle, sweeping strokes when the rabbit is healthy.
Massage may also be contraindicated for certain other health conditions, such as hyperthermia, hypothermia, and obesity.
Massage of a hyperthermic (high fever) rabbit creates risk. A fever is the body’s natural reaction to warding off infection. Because massage increases circulation, it can raise a fever to dangerous levels and interfere with the body’s natural process.
A bunny who is hypothermic (below normal body temperature) could go into shock. To supplement emergency procedures, gentle resting positions, holding, or energy work with the focus/intention on getting the rabbit warmed up are best. Light resting touch over the spine is a comforting, warming gesture.
If your bunny is overweight, it can be difficult to massage through the fat to the muscle, and massaging the fatty tissue can cause pain and stress for the bunny. The rabbit should slowly be brought down to a healthy weight before starting a massage program. In the meantime, simply laying on of hands or light fur strokes would be more appropriate for showing affection and reducing stress while the bunny is dieting.
It’s important to turn off the phone, ground yourself, and establish your intention/purpose before starting any massage session. Some people like to use soft classical music and dim lights to help relaxation and inner focus – factors that help them better connect with their bunny. Avoid scented candles and fragranced soaps, especially if your rabbit is prone to respiratory problems. A rabbit’s sense of smell is superior to ours and some “nice” scents may not be pleasant to them.
Since you will be entering your bunny’s personal space to work on her body, it’s important to approach with an attitude of respect. Give your rabbit the opportunity to move away if the massage creates any kind of stress or discomfort. With continued practice, both of you will come to enjoy it.
Ms. Beal makes the following suggestions for a short massage session that can be incorporated into a rabbit’s daily social time:
Place your hands lightly on your rabbit’s back, and take some deep breaths to center yourself. Nudge the bunny’s body gently from one side to the other in a rhythmic rocking motion, without actually pushing the body back into position. Then start using the long gliding strokes ( effleurage ) down the head, neck, and back. This is a good, all-purpose stroke that is like an extension of petting, and it’s the one that bunnies seem to enjoy most.
Start with long passes down the length of the body, from the nose, over the top of the head, down either side of the spine, and ending at the tail. Make the strokes complete, all the way to the tip of the tail, because that affects something called proprioception, which is how nerve endings tell where we are in space. This gives the bunny a feeling of wholeness, and it feels delicious.
Go SLOWLY . Try to move as slowly as you possibly can and see how your rabbit reacts. Most really love it, and you’ll notice more if you slow down. Do several of these strokes, increasing the pressure slightly each time. Include some circles around the cheeks and temples, lightly knead ( petrissage ) around the neck, and also massage the ear base and down the length of the ear.
A rabbit’s body is delicate and they don’t tolerate pain well. As you massage your rabbit, think about the amount of pressure you’re using. Ms. Beal advises that, like humans, some rabbits only want light work; others are okay with a slightly deeper touch. Some want light pressure in one area, but will tolerate deeper work on a point that feels tense. She also emphasizes the importance of watching your rabbit for feedback:
If he is enjoying the massage, you’ll see positive signs of that: closed eyes, perhaps dozing; slow and even breathing, sighs, or yawns; submissive chin; tooth purring; licking you; stretches or a happy bunny flop.
If your bunny is feeling threatened or in any way uncomfortable, she will signal displeasure or fear by tensing muscles when pressure is applied, flattening the ears in a defensive posture, lunging or boxing, nipping or biting, tail twitching, feet flicking, showing the whites of the eyes, or hopping away. Honor your bunny’s messages: always let your rabbit be in charge of the massage session.
By incorporating some massage time into each day, you’ll become more familiar with your rabbit’s preferences. As you grow closer through this daily relaxation ritual, you’ll be well prepared if the time comes when you need to use massage for more specific healing purposes.
Caregivers who wish to know more about massage for their rabbits, including for head tilt and to help support healthy peristaltic action, will be aided with Ms. Beal’s book or DVD. Also refer to the short resource list below for additional information.
Consider researching and using alternative therapies as a wellness measure to prevent illness or, if your rabbit is already ill, to facilitate healing. Keep in mind a rabbit’s low tolerance for pain and the potentially life-threatening problems that can quickly arise if pain and underlying issues are not treated in a timely manner. Consult with your veterinarian as necessary, discuss the diagnosis, and seek appropriate treatment. When your rabbit needs a veterinarian’s help, alternative modalities can act as a complement to standard veterinary care.
Carefully select the professional who will provide care for your rabbit, reviewing training and qualifications. Consider also the condition of your rabbit as well as the physiology, nature, and needs of these small creatures. Be clear and realistic about your expectations and goals for treatment, which should prioritize your rabbit’s comfort and quality of life.

Learn how to massage your pet rabbit in this Howcast video featuring bunny lover Amy Sedaris and rabbit expert Mary E. Cotter.
Amy Sedaris: So let's talk about massaging your bunny. Now I know that you said that they're skittish and they're afraid of quick actions and stuff, but I'm a hands on bunny. I give my rabbit massages everyday. So tell me what's the good kind of massage. They like their head and cheeks massaged right? Why is that?
Mary Cotter: They do. Well, when rabbits groom each other. . . The way I learned rabbit massage is not from a human. I learned it from watching rabbits, the way they interact with each other. They will lie next to each other and reach over and they'll kind of mouth or pluck the hair right between the eyes. Look at this rabbit's eyes are closing.
Mary: Yeah, they really, really enjoy that. It feels like another rabbit. And around the base of the ears, they love to be massaged around the base of the ears.
Amy: And they like the tips of their ears kissed.
Mary: Yeah, it's as if you're licking their ears almost, which we do but we don't often confess to. But anyway, rabbits love to be touched around the ears and head very, very gently. Amy also does. . . Her rabbit is a senior rabbit, a 12 year old rabbit, so she has learned to help that rabbit's arthritis by giving really gentle massage all the way down the spine and her rabbit just melts when she does it.
Amy: Yeah, you just kind of find the spine here and you just kind of. . . Well you taught me just to kind of rub the fingertips on one side of the spine, the other side of the spine. It really puts her just to sleep. She likes this area rubbed a little bit. She'll start licking the floor when I do that.
Mary: She's licking the floor because your hand isn't available. That's the thing, you can a rabbit reflexively licking. Rabbits want to groom you back.
Mary: So if you're massaging a rabbit and they're really enjoying it they'll start, they'll lick anything available. If your hand isn't available it could be the floor that they're licking. This one's really enjoying this too.
Mary: And a lot of people are interested in T-touch, which is great to learn.
Mary: Tellington touch. It's a way of doing massage that involves small circular motions in particular body areas.
Mary: And you could do that. Do you need to do it? No, you don't need to do it. You'll find ways with your own rabbit, especially with your own rabbit where you know their reactions very well, that they enjoy and that are comfortable for them. But if you want to go an additional step and learn T-touch that's great too.
Amy: A little tugging on the ear. One thing you don't want to do, I don't know if this is about something else, but we'll probably do it with rabbit handling. You don't want to pick a rabbit. . . I've seen people try to grab around here and try to lift it.
Amy: But just you'll know if you're doing the right thing by their expression. I don't know about bellies. My rabbit likes the side of her, like right here, rubbed.
Mary: Yeah, I want to show you about belly massages.
Mary: One time we use belly massage, if a rabbit is having gastrointestinal pain, which can happen when they eat a weird combination of foods and vegetables and they get gas pains just like babies do, but they don't cry like babies. Instead, they kind of hunker down and they look like they're hurting.
Amy: It's like they're trying to smash their belly on the floor.
Mary: Yeah, they could do what's called belly pressing. They can just repeatedly push their belly against the floor.
Amy: To try to work the bubble out.
Mary: To try to get the gas out, yeah. And so one thing you can do is belly massage. I will show you with this bunny. She's never had belly massage before. So we'll take her out of this.
Amy: Oh, she's going to be in heaven.
Mary: She was in heaven, now we're moving that off the table. I'll just show you the position we use. If you're right-handed as I am, you position the bunny so that she's facing your right elbow. Just gently put your hand underneath her and you're going to lift her weight like this and you could support her butt. And if you just do this you're massaging her belly. I'm just gently using my right hand to massage her belly while supporting her hind quarters.
Amy: You're kind of just moving your fingers like this.
Mary: I'm not even moving them that much. I'm just kind of gently squeezing the way I'd squeeze a balloon. That squeezes her gastrointestinal tract including her cecum. Look how relaxed her legs are. They just kind of drop and she's just enjoying this. Just feels good and she's tucking her head under my arm. So you do that a little bit and then you put the bunny back down and sometimes the gas pain is relieved by a couple of sessions of massage like that. I haven't yet found a bunny who doesn't enjoy that kind of massage. Some people find it really funny because you can, I don't know if this bunny will go for it, but you can actually lift their hind quarters almost like that and they won't move away. Something feels good. I'm not a rabbit so can't vouch for that, but from
