As our dogs and horses age, their bodies go through many changes - just like humans.
Stiff joints, reduced mobility, arthritis, muscle loss, or slower recovery after exercise can all become part of their daily lives.
Veterinary physiotherapy can play a vital role in helping senior animals stay comfortable, mobile, and happy for longer!
Physiotherapy focuses on maintaining strength, flexibility, and balance while reducing pain and stiffness.
Through techniques such as electrotherapy’s, gentle exercises, stretching, massage, and tailored rehabilitation plans, older animals can move more freely and with greater confidence.
For many, this means enjoying walks, turnout, hacks, or everyday activities again without discomfort 🙌🏼
For dogs, physiotherapy can help with conditions like arthritis, spinal issues, post-surgical recovery, or general age-related weakness.
For horses, it can support joint health, improve posture and muscle symmetry, and help manage long-term conditions while promoting comfort in work or retirement.
Each animal is assessed as an individual, and treatment plans are adapted to suit their needs, lifestyle, and stage of life.
With the right support, age doesn’t have to mean giving up the things they love, it just means caring for them a little differently.
Treat your animal to regular Veterinary Physiotherapy because growing older should still feel good ✨
