WHAT IS VETERINARY PHYSIOTHERAPY?
Veterinary Physiotherapy utilises hands-on massage techniques combined with stretching, electrotherapies and rehabilitative exercises in order to restore or maintain an animals ability to effectively utilise their body and reduce injury risk.
A list of the conditions physiotherapy can aid when combined with appropriate veterinary treatment include:
Post operative rehabilitation
Muscle, tendon and ligament injuries
Joint pain and problems
Muscular asymmetry
Neurological conditions
Soft tissue problems
Lameness and lameness compensation
Spinal issues
Maintenance of elderly animals
Maintenance of performance animals
Poor ridden performance in horses
