Our Approach

What is Veterinary Physiotherapy?

Veterinary physiotherapy is the application of the same evidence-based assessment and treatment principles used in human physiotherapy, adapted to the needs of animals. It can help improve comfort, mobility and physical function, support recovery following injury or surgery, and assist in the management of chronic conditions.

Working alongside your Veterinary Team

Veterinary physiotherapy works alongside veterinary diagnosis and treatment rather than replacing it. We work collaboratively with your veterinarian to support your animal's recovery, manage ongoing conditions and help optimise their comfort and function.

What to Expect

At Head to Tail Veterinary Physiotherapy, we take a thorough head-to-tail approach to assessment, considering not only the area of concern but the animal as a whole. Your initial appointment includes a detailed assessment of your animal's movement, posture, mobility and physical function, alongside discussion of their history, current concerns and goals.
