PHYSIOTHERAPY TREATMENTS

MANUAL THERAPIES

Manual therapy manipulates the soft tissues and joints

Massage

There are a number of massage techniques that can be used on a wide range of cases

​

Benefits of massage therapy:

  • Reduced tone of muscles 

  • Increased strength of connective tissues

  • Increased flexibility

  • Mobilisation of scar tissue after injury/surgery

  • Increased blood flow

  • Increased lymphatic drainage

  • Increased mental well-being

Stretching

Stretching lengthens the soft tissues and muscles. Dynamic stretches require the animal's movement to stretch the targeted muscle groups, whilst static stretches require someone to hold a stretch for the animal.

​

Benefits of stretching:

  • Increased flexibility 

  • Reduced pain and stiffness 

  • Prevention of injuries

Joint Mobilisations & Manipulations 

The mobility of a joint depends on how freely it can move through a range and is crucial for effective movement. If a joint becomes too mobile or stiff, the stability and mobility balance of the joint are affected. If not corrected, hypermobile and stiff joints can lead to poor muscle activation, ligamentous strains and reduction in the animal's optimal movement.

​

Benefits of joint mobilisations & manipulations:

  • Improved joint function

  • Pain relief

  • Enhanced mobility 

  • Stimulation of the nervous system

Electrotherapies

Electrotherapy treatments involve applying energy into the tissues to influence the mechanisms of the body

Laser

Laser is a non-invasive, painless application of infrared light into the tissues, modulating the tissue function. There are a wide range of conditions that can benefit from laser therapy such as osteoarthritis, tendon and ligament damage and, hip and elbow dysplasia. 

​

Benefits of Laser:

  • Increases the rate of tissue healing 

  • Reduces pain and inflammation

TENS & NMES

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) has a range of uses to reduce different types of pain. 

It is most commonly used for chronic or long-term pain such as pain related to osteoarthritis or joint and muscular pain.

​

Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) assists in building and strengthening muscle, especially in cases where an animal has lost a significant amount. This can be caused by a range of things such as, spinal or neurological injuries, disuse of a limb from injury or surgery and ageing. 

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy

Also known as Pulse-Mag or PEMF, this electrotherapy  has been shown to increase bone production (osteogenesis), increase the regeneration of cartilage cells, improve cartilage survival in joint tissues, proliferate stem cells and have anti-inflammatory effects in treated tissues.​

​

Benefits of Pulse-Mag:

  • Fracture Healing

  • Pain Management (chronic & acute)

  • Soft Tissue Swelling or Bruising

  • Wounds

  • Neurological Injuries
