Ever wondered what veterinary physiotherapy actually does? 🐾

Just like in humans, physiotherapy for animals focuses on improving movement, reducing pain, and supporting recovery after injury or surgery. Whether the patient is recovering from cruciate ligament surgery, or an older dog struggling with arthritis, physiotherapy plays a huge role in helping to promote healing, reduce muscle compensatory issues and restore function.

Using a combination of hands-on techniques such as massage and stretch, targeted exercises, and therapeutic modalities such as red light photo therapy, pulsed electro magnetic field therapy, therapeutic ultrasound and laser or hydrotherapy, animal physiotherapists work to:
🐶Restore mobility
🐶increase range of motion
🐶Build strength and balance
🐶Reduce pain and stiffness
🐶Prevent further injury
🐶Improve quality of life

It’s not just about recovery either — physiotherapy can help improve performance in working or sporting animals and support long-term wellbeing.

All our patients under go an initial physiotherapy session to ensure compensatory issues are addressed, initial measurements and function is noted and to make the correct treatment plan going forwards.

Some of our patients can only tolerate physiotherapy
Some really don’t like being so hands on
Which is why we tailor each individual animals plan to suite their specific needs ❤️

Thank you to everyone for baring with us today ❤️
Business is never easy, and it’s usually all all nothing. Today was an ALL day with 2 broken treadmills 😩 luckily we have some knights in shining armour who rushed out and fixed both problems - one a new pump, the other a new valve!
The other set of knights in shining armour are working tirelessly to get the end part of our expansion completed.
The girls as always dealt with all the chaos professionally with a smile, I’m so very lucky!
And you wonderful people dealt with some slight carnage, noise and changes of appointments, with us running a little late and dealing with everything else inbetween.
So thank you all 🙏🏻❤️

I’m Leah and I’ve been lucky to have been in and involved with JCB Animal Physio for 2 years.
I graduated Hartpury University in 2023 in Applied Animal Science with Therapy and completed my Level 3 Canine Hydrotherapy qualification alongside my university studies.

I’ve owned horses all my life and have been lucky enough to have many notable achievements whilst show jumping, my biggest being that I competed for Wales.

My interest in hydrotherapy/physiotherapy began when my pony Boo had an injury and required a specific rehabilitation plan to ensure she recovered well. After seeing how much this helped Boo, I decided that I wanted this to be my chosen career path.

I came to JCB Animal Physio to gain some work experience 2 years ago. I was then lucky enough to be asked to come and work part time, and have now undertaken a full time role.

Seeing how much of a difference we can make to your loved companions is such a privilege. I can’t wait to continue to watch the centre grow, whilst also helping you and your pets as much as possible! I feel lucky to be a part of the JCB Animal Physio Rehab team.

Motherhood isn’t defined by species—it’s defined by love ❤️
To the fur moms who wake up to wagging tails, early morning Winnie’s and gentle purrs, who plan their days around feedings and vet visits, and whose hearts melt at the sight of a sleepy pet curled up in their lap or a gentle nuzzle —this day is for you 🐶🐴🐈
Your love is real, your care is meaningful, and the bond you share is absolutely priceless. Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing pet Mum’s out there!
Obligatory photo of my tribe 🥰🥰🥰 and I’ll be spending the day with them ♥️

Our longest standing, full time OCD one ❤️

Gemma Askey-Baker
Canine Hydrotherapist, MIAAT
During my school years I studied sport with a keen interest for sport rehabilitation. However, after finishing university I soon realised the career path I had chosen wasn’t exactly something I was passionate about and my true passion was working with and caring for animals. I’ve owned dogs and horses all my life and in my younger years took part in some dressage and show jumping competitions with my section D mare.

In 2016 I started looking for a job working with animals and found a receptionist position available at my local vets. I instantly fell in love. I progressed in the veterinary world and in 2018 I started working as a student nurse in a very fast pace veterinary hospital in South Wales. I loved every aspect of the job and I learnt a lot about supporting and caring for animals with medical, neurological and orthopaedic conditions.

In 2019 while I was working as a nurse, Howie my little terrier cross came in after being injured and abandoned.
After he’d undergone a few different operations to fix his broken legs we were referred to JCB Animal Physio to help with his recovery and that is where my journey really began.

I started working at the centre part time whilst still working as a veterinary nurse and also studying Canine Hydrotherapy. In 2022, I completed my level 3 certificate with Hawksmoor Hydrotherapy and at the beginning of 2023 started working full time here at the centre, bringing both my passion for animals and rehabilitation together in the same job has been a dream come true.

In the next year I hope to start my Physiotherapy qualification as well as to take on more managerial aspects of work within JCB Animal Physio Rehabilitation Centre while the centre grows.

Hi, I’m Callie, a veterinary physiotherapist and small animal hydrotherapist part of team JCB! I have grown up with dogs, cats, fish (& a chinchilla at one point!) always being a part of the family and with a passion for animal welfare and anatomy, it naturally led me down the path of animal rehabilitation!

With a special interest in canine musculoskeletal and neurological rehabilitation, I’m dedicated to tailoring treatment that supports your dog’s recovery, mobility, and quality of life!

I gained my Postgraduate Diploma in Veterinary Physiotherapy from the University of Nottingham School of Veterinary Medicine in 2024. In 2022 I completed my Level 3 Diploma in Small Animal Hydrotherapy. Prior to this, I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Therapy and Rehabilitation in 2020. I also hold a level 3 Diploma in Equine Management from Hartpury College.

When I’m not working with animals, I love a UK getaway with my partner and our dog Elsa - always on the hunt for new places filled with good food and lovely walks!

💥Attention All💥
Due to the ever increasing cost of the world, and new ever rising costs the government are impinging on small businesses I’ve had no other option than to increase our prices
This is not something I take lightly heartedly and have looked at many ways not to increase our prices however I can’t make the bills fit this time 😖
I’m proud we haven’t increased our prices since August 2024 to make this service as obtainable as possible.

If you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to speak to myself or one of the amazing team ❤️
Thank you for your ever loving, loyal and amazing support
