Physiotherapy
What is Veterinary Physiotherapy?
Veterinary Physiotherapists work alongside Veterinarians harnessing the same principles and theories as human physiotherapy.
We are another member of the team, alongside your Vet, you the owner, and other professionals such as nutritionists and chiropractors. All with the same goal, to reduce pain, promote healing and strength, support mobility, and develop fitness to optimise your animal’s quality of life.
Using a holistic and multi-modal approach, involving massage, deep tissue release, laser therapy and strength and conditioning programs, physiotherapists are an important pillar in injury rehabilitation, senior dog care, fitness development and general day-to-day maintenance, supporting all animals and their owners.
We are here to provide support and guidance, offering professional and personal treatment for you and your animals.
