Cotswold Vet Physio treats horses and dogs for a wide variety of conditions, providing them with the dedicated care and attention that will help them recover from injury, relieve their pain and enable them to lead rich and fulfilling lives.
We are the only Canine Physiotherapy centre in Cheltenham to offer a multimodal approach to rehabilitation – incorporating both land and water based therapy using a state of the art underwater treadmill.
Unlike humans, animals cannot easily express where their pain lies. While some conditions will appear obvious, there are others such as behavioural and schooling problems together with reduced performance that can all be due to pain, joint stiffness or muscle weakness.
We find that animals respond well to physiotherapy and its associated techniques, including soft tissue mobilisation and electrotherapy, as well as specific rehabilitation and exercise programmes that we develop on behalf of your animal.
Our canine Physiotherapy is predominately carried out at our conveniently located premises in the centre of Cheltenham. Yard visits will be carried out for our equine patients. All patients can only be seen upon referral from a Veterinary Surgeon. You can certainly contact us directly for further advice and support and we can then organise any referral from your vet on your behalf.
