Canine Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy in animals is used to support those struggling with chronic conditions, post operatively or to identify areas of pain. 

Canine Assessment & Treatment

This may be seen as difficulty jumping on and off the sofa, reluctance to go on walks or to be groomed.
 

Some animals show behavioral changes and may guard an area or unusually vocalise. Following a consultation, observational and physical assessment of your dog or cat.
 

We can together create a list of realistic short and long term goals to improve quality of life and to help your pet return to an active lifestyle.

Treatments can be used to support injury prevention and reduce the onset of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), particularly in sporting and working dogs.
