Physiotherapy is widely recognised in human medicine as being effective in the treatment and rehabilitation of soft tissue injuries, arthritis, neck and back pain and following fractures or surgery.

Qualified animal physiotherapists are registered human physiotherapists who have undergone further study to enable them to transfer their skills in assessment and treatment to animals.

The aims of physiotherapy are to aid the animals healing capacity by reducing pain and inflammation, improving joint range of motion and muscle strength, thereby restoring movement, function and quality of life.
