Veterinary Physiotherapy

Veterinary physiotherapy in the Animal House Small Animal Clinic

Why veterinary physiotherapy

The aim of veterinary physiotherapy is to relieve pain, restore mobility, train movement patterns, minimise or even remove asymmetry and incorrect posture, train weakened muscles and improve performance (e.g. in sport). This is done by means of active and passive techniques and an extensive home exercise programme. Ultimately, your pet should be able to enjoy pain-free movement.
