Veterinary Physiotherapy

Using information from our team of surgeons as our starting point, we evaluate each pet, administer the most appropriate treatment and give owners advice and training so that they can support and maintain our treatment programme.

Healing starts straight after surgery. Appropriate treatment in the hours, days and weeks after surgery is vitally important to ensure the best possible outcome as veterinary physiotherapy bridges the gap between surgery and full recovery.

Veterinary physiotherapy can be used after surgery, after injury and for pre-surgical conditioning. It helps manage pain, maintains and rebuilds muscle mass, improves mobility and joint function, can improve strength and balance, helps with weight control and improves overall quality of life.

The aim of any veterinary physiotherapeutic treatment is to limit the impact of injury and disease processes, optimise the potential for healing and accelerate each animal’s return to function and/or performance.
