Hydrotherapy
Guided physiotherapy in warm water, using support and resistance to make purposeful movement safer and more comfortable.
Acupuncture
Gentle acupuncture, where appropriate, to support comfort and mobility within a wider care plan.
Individual care
At their pace.
Every dog is an individual. We build each session around their needs, comfort and confidence, using a caring, gentle and positive approach that gives them time to settle and make meaningful progress.
Recognising pain
Could discomfort be holding them back?
Pain does not always look like a limp. Small changes in movement, behaviour or everyday routines can be your dog’s way of showing that something does not feel right.
Moving differently
Stiffness after rest, slowing on walks, hesitation on stairs or difficulty getting comfortable.
Doing less
Less interest in play, shorter walks, avoiding jumps or needing more help to rise.
Acting differently
Restlessness, withdrawal, irritability, panting at rest or repeatedly licking one area.
A change in movement or behaviour is not a diagnosis. For new, severe or sudden pain, contact your vet.
