Physiotherapy is a useful part of any sport, performance or working dogs training programme. Routine check ups can detect musculoskeletal imbalances at an early stage and decrease risk of associated injury. Treatment will also enhance your dogs performance by improving the following:
- Suppleness
- Flexibility
- Muscular symmetry
- Balance
- Proprioception
- Increased strength
- Speed
- Overall athleticism
What will happen during a physiotherapy session?
Each session begins within an update from the owner/handler followed by static and dynamic assessments. Appropriate treatment is then selected and carried out with agreement from the owner. For details on treatments available please see our ‘services’ pages. Exercises specific to your dogs requirements are then practised and demonstrated for home care.
