Veterinary physiotherapy services for all animals

Veterinary physiotherapy is a science-based approach, combining multiple non-invasive techniques to support the treatment, management and prevention of many musculoskeletal conditions or injuries in animals.

Working alongside the traditional veterinary team, these methods can assist in reducing pain, improving recovery and restoring movement in both small and large animals. Both pets and performance animals, regardless of age or activity level, can benefit from the assistance of a veterinary physiotherapist.

Our goal is to determine the best course of treatment for every animal, which can involve multiple techniques and changing approaches from time to time. Every animal is different and comes with different needs, and we tailor each treatment plan to the patient. Some of what we might do include:

Assessment

We provide a full evaluation your animal’s condition, determine potential treatment options, and have a friendly chat!

Red-Light Phototherapy

Phototherapy is a safe and effective technique for promoting and accelerating healing by improving circulation and cell regrowth.

Veterinary Kinesiotaping

The application of skin-safe adhesive tape to targeted areas supports muscles and joints, promoting healing and preventing injury during performance.

Exercise Prescription

For some conditions, regular, gentle exercise can greatly improve rehabilitation outcomes and slow progressive deterioration.

Manual Therapies

A diverse family of techniques, including myofascial release and range of motion exercises, addresses a variety of musculoskeletal issues.

Underwater Treadmill

The resistance and buoyancy of water, combined with a controlled treadmill setting, allows for targeted strengthening of specific muscles.

Therapeutic Ultrasound

Deep-penetrating ultrasound can help to recover musculoskeletal soundness and reduce pain.

Rehabilitation

We can offer support to the traditional veterinary team in the ongoing rehabilitation of post-injury and post-op patients.

Veterinary Thermography

Advanced thermal imaging of injury or inflammation hotspots can assist in determining the best course of treatment.

TENS Electrotherapy

TENS is the application of mild electrical pulses to stimulate tissue movement and combat pain signals.

Canine Wheelchair Fitting

We are certified canine wheelchair fitters, ensuring that your dog receives a custom-built solution and is trained in its correct use.

Maintenance

Many performance animals or those with long-term conditions can benefit from ongoing maintenance.
