Physiotherapy

What is physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy helps animals recover from injury, illness or surgery, manage pain and improve their mobility, strength and overall quality of life.

Using a combination of hands-on treatments, exercise rehabilitation and specialist equipment, physiotherapy can help restore movement, support healing and prevent further injury.

How can physiotherapy help?

Just like us, animals can benefit from physiotherapy and rehabilitation after injury, illness, surgery, weight gain or loss of fitness.

Physiotherapy can help with:

Bone, muscle, tendon or ligament injuries
Joint problems such as arthritis, swelling and stiffness
Recovery following surgery
Neurological and spinal conditions
Pain management and improved mobility
Weight management and reduced fitness
Age-related mobility problems
Improving performance in sporting or working animals
