Physiotherapy is a specialised form of physical therapy designed to help animals recover from injury, surgery, or manage chronic conditions like arthritis. Just like in human physiotherapy, the goal is to reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance quality of life.
This therapy can be an essential part of your pet’s rehabilitation plan, especially after orthopaedic surgery, neurological issues, or age-related degeneration.
At Black Dog Physio, each physiotherapy session is customised to meet your animal’s individual needs.
Hydrotherapy is a form of low-impact, water-based exercise designed to support recovery, improve mobility, and build strength. It involves controlled movement in an Underwater Treadmill, guided by one of our trained therapists.
This can be beneficial for animals recovering from surgery or injury, managing chronic conditions, or needing support with weight management, balance, or strength.
At Black Dog Physio, hydrotherapy sessions are tailored to your animal's specific needs and delivered with both clinical expertise and compassionate care.
Laser therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses light energy to reduce pain and inflammation, and to promote faster healing in dogs. Also known as photobiomodulation, this therapy works by stimulating cells to repair and regenerate more efficiently.
It’s commonly used as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation or pain management plan—and many animals find it relaxing and enjoyable.
At Black Dog Physio, we use advanced therapeutic laser technology as part of our holistic approach to animal rehabilitation.
