What to Expect

Each session will be tailored to suit the individual but sessions will typically cover the following:

  1. Discussion – A detailed conversation about your pet's medical history, health, behaviour, and any existing injuries or performance issues. Changes in behaviour, mobility, or daily activities are important to address for a full understanding before treatment.

  2. Assessment – A thorough assessment will be performed to evaluate your pet's movement and detect any signs or areas of discomfort. This includes a hands-on musculoskeletal evaluation, focusing on joints, muscles, and spinal health.

  3. Treatment – Physiotherapy treatments will be tailored to the findings from the assessment and any pre-existing conditions. These may include manual therapies and electrotherapy treatments such as Laser, PEMF, Ultrasound, or TENS, as needed.

  4. Home Exercise Plan – A tailored home exercise plan will be provided to support your pet’s recovery and progress.

  5. Report – A detailed report of the session will be emailed to you, which can also be shared with other professionals involved in your pet’s care, including their vet, to ensure a coordinated approach to rehabilitation.
