The main thing I noticed was your comment on her not liking to be restrained. This is actually the area I think you need to address first. I have this same conversation at work alot and it is 98% of the time about nails.
I ususally see a few errors in this at work. One is that if she is all wiggles, pulling and trying to get away never give her treats to calm her down or reward her with "good girl" comments because she will think it is okay to act that way.
Second, somewhere along the line she learned that if she wiggles you will stop. The answer here is not to let them win. Do not stop until the job is done, you got to be the pack leader on this and they have to learn they dont get their way, it become easier to get it done then to fight if you dont give up. (may take a few times)
Get her up off the floor, it is easier to handle a dog on a table or something when clipping nails then on the floor, they have more leverage over you down there.
The less restraint the better IMO....I never have 3 or 4 tech's/assistants in there laying on a dog to get its nails cut. There should be one holder and one clipper....
With the dog off the ground you place one hand behind the head and the other under the throat. You would look like you are trying to choke the dog (but dont

, you then lean into the body (shoulder blade area) with your arm that is holding the back of the neck and hold them in a down position. The person with the clippers goes around to each toe. The main thing here is not to stop and dont let them raise up and get away.....This works 100% better then having a ton of people trying to hold you down.....
If she trys to get away hold her firm until she stops trying to get away....This will show your position over her and that she wont get her way and you wont stop...after it is all said and done then praise and treat!!!!!......
A dog that does not like to be restrained is one that is very hard to work on with anything. It could be nails first then move on to ears, eyes, baths etc.......So, again I say start there
