Little bit of news for everyone and a request.

In my ongoing desire to improve and be a better vet physio, I have just signed up to the Canine Conditioning Academy coach course. This is a year long course that will enable me to use their methods and training programmes for improving your dog's conditioning fitness. Throughout the year I require a number of dogs to use as case studies to work through the various levels on the programme.

I will therefore looking for several keen owners who want to work on the condition and fitness of their dog(s). You will need to be invested in the programmes yourself as I will require you to progress through the various levels as the year progresses. If this is something you would like to be involved in, please do let me know.

We offer stance analysis to existing clients, new clients and those under the care of other therapists.

Stance analysis can help identify early indications of problems, detect early weight shifting or lameness not visible to the eye, especially when included as part of routine checks.

The iliopsoas muscle is responsible for flexing the hip joint, and when it becomes strained or torn, it can cause pain and difficulty walking. Symptoms of an iliopsoas injury may include reluctance to jump, difficulty rising, and a decrease in activity level.

Prevention is key, and regular exercise and proper warm-up before physical activity can help reduce the risk of an iliopsoas injury.

OCD is a common joint disorder that affects young and active dogs. It occurs when a piece of cartilage within the joint separates from the underlying bone, causing pain, swelling, and lameness.

If your dog is showing signs of limping, reluctance to move, or decreased activity, it could be a sign of OCD. Don't ignore these symptoms, as early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for a better outcome.

Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) is a common spinal condition in dogs, particularly in long-backed breeds such as Dachshunds and Corgis. IVDD occurs when the discs between the vertebrae of the spine degenerate or herniate, causing pain and potentially leading to paralysis.

If your dog has been diagnosed with IVDD, conservative or post-surgical physiotherapy could support their recovery journey 🐾

As dogs age, their mobility and quality of life may decline due to various factors such as osteoarthritis, muscle weakness, and injury. Physiotherapy can help to prevent or slow down the progression of these age-related conditions, so they can continue to enjoy their favourite activities into their senior years 🐾

The gracilis muscle is responsible for flexing the stifle and bringing the hind limb toward the body, and is particularly important for acceleration. Consequently, gracilis myopathy, which involves disease or injury to the muscle, is often seen in sport and working dogs. Contact us if you suspect your dog may have this condition, or are interested in injury prevention 🐾

We are taking a little holiday, so Superfly will be closed from the 6th April to the 17th April. Whilst e-mails and messages will be monitored, replies may not happen until I return.

After injury, soft tissue structures in the body undergo a natural healing process, made up of specific phases. Understanding the stages of healing is pivotal for designing individualized rehabilitation programs aimed at expediting recovery and minimizing discomfort.

This is a very scary statistic

This is true of dogs over the age of 8, but we also know that arthritis is not just an 'old dog disease'. Recent reports indicate that arthritis in dogs of any age is more than double (38%) that of previous widely cited estimates (20%)

Canine OA is a widespread condition - but it CAN be managed!

***NEWS UPDATE - SOUTHEAST APPOINTMENTS***

The next two dates for appointments:

19th March - limited availability
23rd April - limited availability
Mid May - Date tbc

It is my intention to continue to visit the southeast area 1-2 times per month, mainly in Surrey and Sussex areas. These will predominantly comprise of day clinic set up in Dunsfold (Surrey) or Five Ashes (East Sussex) with very limited home visits. It needs to be noted that for these trips to happen I do need enough appointments to cover costs and make it worth while coming down.

Unfortunately, with the ever increasing cost (particularly fuel) I am having to increase my appointment fees in the Southeast, so from the 1st April 2023 appointments will be as follows:

Initial Consultations - £65
Follow-Up Appointments - £50
Maintenance Appointments - £50

For those that see me regularly I still offer membership schemes that can help save a little towards the costs of treatments. Contact me for more information.

01/03/2023

Final call for appointments on 12th and 19th March. Contact me to book

28/02/2023

From March, our coffee mornings will be held on the first Wednesday of every month, so join us tomorrow for a cuppa and a catch-up 🐾
