THERAPY SERVICES
Dogs and Horses of any discipline, and any level, can benefit from a physiotherapy input. You may notice a change in your animals behavior, performance or functional ability that can be suggestive of pain and discomfort, have a known injury that is being managed with a vet, have an aging dog that is beginning to struggle, or a competing horse that would benefit with regular maintenance. For any animal, we can work in collaboration with your vet to provide physiotherapeutic support.
Following veterinary consent, a detailed assessment will be completed to determine your animals problem areas and to develop a tailored and individual treatment plan to manage these.
