To treadmill or to pool?! How do we decide?

We always review your dog’s clinical history and veterinary referral and will first and foremost be guided by your vet! We can then combine this, with the findings from our initial assessment to decide what is safest and most suited for your dog! We can always discuss our reasoning with you and sometimes we may even use both!

Has your dog had any of these surgeries…
❤️ TPLO
❤️ Total hip replacement
❤️ Spinal decompression surgery for IVDD

If they have, then it is highly likely they will benefit from post-surgical rehabilitation including massage therapy, hydrotherapy and physiotherapy! We are fortunate enough to be able to offer all of these services at RA Canine Therapist (with providing physio on Sundays here at the centre)

Those legs were made for swimming 😆

Muna the Italian Greyhound has amazed us with her progress over the year she has been seeing us! Her muscle mass has increased dramatically and she now maintains a beautiful swimming posture and swims so elegantly! We love seeing this beautiful girl, and seeing her leap into her Mum’s arms at the end 😆💕

Massage therapy to enhance the benefits of hydrotherapy 😍

Did you know you can add on a full massage therapy session prior to your hydrotherapy session? We will always apply massage in your dog’s rest breaks during their hydro session (if they are comfortable with this and if it’s appropriate to do so!) but a full massage session before hydrotherapy can alleviate muscular tension, enhance soft tissue flexibility and improve comfort levels, ready for their session in the water.

Myth of the week - 1 session won’t have much impact! ❌

While multiple, regular sessions over time will have the MOST benefit for your dog, research shows us that even just 1 session can improve joint range of motion and stride length. Every dog is different and one may respond much quicker to treatment than another! We will always tailor sessions to your dog 💕

To get your dog booked in, drop us a DM today! 💕
