I was also told to inject in the muscle either side of the spine and make sure not to inject too deeply but stay within the muscle.

And, as well as the massage afterwards to alternate sides and location so you are not injecting into already tender tissue.

Same things I was told. Also towards the head not the tail at a 45 degree angle. I found the Ralph Davis video extremey helpful, as well as the Ocean Animal Clinic website. I never had anyone restrain my girl so I had to go at it alone. It's definitely not one of my fave things to do.
