Canine Physiotherapy

Massage increases blood flow to the targeted muscles which aids healing and relieves tensions. Techniques include myofascial release, trigger point release, petrissage and deep tissue.

PMFT induces a mild electrical magnetic current to restore or change a cell’s potential. This enhances the body’s repair process. Research has shown PMFT to be effective in reducing muscle spasm, inflammation, fracture repair, nerve regeneration and pain management.

The physiological responses to Low Level Laser therapy involve stimulation of the body's natural healing processes, optimising repair and helping to restore normal cellular function. Laser therapy can therefore be extremely beneficial for managing arthritis and helping muscle, tendon and ligament strains, trigger points and wound repair.

Exercise prescription such as strength training or rhythmic stabilisations will help prolong treatment benefits, optimise recovery, promote suppleness, mobility, core strength, proprioception, and joint health.

NMES/TENS uses a small electrical current to stimulate movement.  These treatments can be used in small doses to rebuild or maintain muscle mass and can also be used as another method of pain management.

Joint mobilisation and stretches can improve range of motion, reduce pain, and improve the mechanics of a joint and decrease risk of injury.
