As pet owners, we all want our animals to live happy, healthy, and active lives. Whether they are recovering from an injury, managing a long-term condition, or simply getting older, veterinary physiotherapy can play a vital role in improving their quality of life.
What is Veterinary Physiotherapy?
Veterinary physiotherapy is a specialised field focused on restoring movement, reducing pain, and improving overall function in animals. Using a combination of manual therapies, electrotherapy, and remedial exercises, physiotherapy supports recovery and enhances mobility in pets of all ages.
How Can Physiotherapy Help Your Pet?
Veterinary physiotherapy is beneficial for a wide range of conditions, including:
- Injury Rehabilitation – Aiding recovery from fractures, sprains, and muscle injuries.
- Post-Surgery Support – Helping pets regain strength and movement after operations.
- Arthritis & Joint Issues – Managing pain and stiffness in aging pets or those with chronic conditions.
- Performance Enhancement – Keeping working and sporting animals in peak condition.
- Neurological Conditions – Supporting pets with nerve-related disorders to improve movement and coordination.
What to Expect from a Veterinary Physiotherapy Session
The process begins with an initial consultation, where a thorough assessment is carried out to understand your pet’s condition and needs. This includes movement analysis, muscle and joint examination, and discussing a tailored treatment plan.
Follow-up sessions focus on manual therapies (such as massage and joint mobilisations), electrotherapy for pain relief and healing, and remedial exercises to strengthen muscles and improve mobility. Home exercises may also be recommended to continue progress between sessions.
