Providing a calm environment for both animals and owners

Hydrotherapy

Water provides a number of properties that are useful for an array of canine conditions. It allows older dogs a brief period of weightlessness where they can exercise with reduced pressure on painful joints whilst the warmth of the water can reduce soft tissue tension and improve mobility. It provides an element of proprioceptive input for dogs with neurological conditions and provides an element of drag which assists strengthening for all types of patients.
Physiotherapy

We offer clinical assessment and treatment in a calm environment at our centre. Home exercises will be recommended and advice on lifestyle, activity and exercise is included to promote a holistic approach to rehabilitation.
Veterinary Physiotherapy is the assessment and treatment of animals through a range of manual techniques to help injured animals suffering from orthopaedic, musculoskeletal, or neurological dysfunctions. Physiotherapy assessment can be used to understand why a lameness or limp occurred originally to locate the source of pain or dysfunction.

What Does A Session Include?

We have set up our appointments so that whatever your dog needs, they receive. For example they may require a full hydrotherapy session or a mix of hydro and physio, with laser therapy and other modalities. We believe that this approach is the best for our patients' mobility and wellbeing.
​
An hour session is £72 and we offer a block booking deal of one free session when a block of 10 is purchased.
​
In some cases, 30 minute sessions are appropriate which may focus on a sole treatment modality ie just underwater treadmill. These sessions are £50 for 30 minutes and include a full report as standard.
​
Physiotherapy & hydrotherapy is often covered by insurance in rehab cases. We are happy to assist you in the claims process.
