πΎ Pet Health Tip: Gradual Return to Exercise π
Just like humans, our beloved pets need a thoughtful approach to exercise, especially when they're on pain medications. One day they go from being in pain, struggling with daily mobility and limited exercise, to suddenly being able to run, jump, and play again. However, they may still be deconditioned with weak muscles from their previous discomfort and limited mobility. Rushing into vigorous activities can stress these weakened muscles, tendons, and ligaments, potentially leading to further injuries.
I'm here to help you gradually return your pet to exercise! πΎ Whether recovering from injury or managing pain, I can create personalised exercise programs tailored to achieve both your and your pet's goals. Ensuring they build strength safely and enjoy a comfortable recovery journey.

π Paloma showing off her baited stretches π
Baited stretches are valuable exercises for improving range of motion through the spine, maintaining flexibility and balance, and stimulating core muscle engagement.
Stretches should always be carried out after exercise to avoid injury.
π΅οΈ Well done Paloma π΅οΈ
