Veterinary Physiotherapy
Improve your dog's joint mobility, condition, proprioception to aid fluid movement and reduce the risk of injury through physiotherapy
​
Our RAMP registered Veterinary Physiotherapist focuses on the ‘Prehabilitation’ concept; the idea of maintenance physiotherapy to spot changes to the dog's movement or tissue state early and completing targeted exercises regularly to prevent the onset of injuries
​
Our Veterinary Physio services also form an important part of our Behaviour Assessments as pain contributes to a range of behaviour issues and it's crucial we look at the dog as a whole.
What's included in a Veterinary Physiotherapy Consultation?
-
One 60 minute consultation with RAMP registered Veterinary Physiotherapist Alice, followed by a report. The initial consultation will allow our Veterinary Physiotherapist to assess your dog's mobility and discuss an immediate action plan for you to begin implementing straight away. A bespoke treatment plan and advised number of sessions required will be provided, based on the initial consultation (treatment may need to be in consultation with your vet).
-
For Behaviour cases an in depth assessment of your dog's mobility including any potential pain will be carried out, a report will then be sent to your veterinary practice. Our Veterinary Physiotherapist will then work with your veterinary practice on treatment plans if needed once a diagnosis has been confirmed.
-
Treatment will depend upon your dog's condition and needs and may include massage therapy, electrotherapy (including LASER, TENS & NMES) therapeutic Ultrasound and heat therapy
-
Access to support from the Veterinary Physiotherapist via email/Whatsapp in between sessions

Free membership to our exclusive Facebook community group for ongoing advice and support
