Physiotherapy – What is it, and do I need it?

Physiotherapy is all about functionality and movement. A healthcare profession that focuses on physical treatment to increase recovery and rehabilitation. It can also help prevent further injuries, restore psychological well-being, and achieve optimal performance and quality of life for humans and animals.

As a human, you will often be recommended physiotherapy by a doctor, who would refer you to someone like me. But what about our animal friends? It is far more challenging to treat an equine, canine or feline patient simply for the fact they cannot tell us the problem! Diagnosis is a vital part of physiotherapy. Physiotherapy compromises of detailed history taking, static and dynamo assessment, treatment using both hands-on techniques and electrotherapy, followed by exercise prescription to assist in strengthening and maintaining comfort.
