Veterinary Physiotherapy Services for Dogs
As a qualified Veterinary Physiotherapist based in Rosudgeon, I provide tailored physiotherapy that focuses on healing, mobility, and quality of life.
🐾 Post-Operative Dog Rehabilitation in Cornwall
Has your dog recently had surgery? I typically begin post-op physiotherapy 1–2 weeks after surgery, depending on your vet’s recommendations.
I offer a structured, supportive recovery plan of 6 session (one free) to help dogs heal safely and confidently. Conditions I work with include:
CCL (cruciate ligament) repair
Hip & elbow dysplasia
Spinal surgeries & issues
Patella luxation
Orthopaedic injuries
Canine Arthritis Treatment & Mobility Support
Is your dog slowing down or showing signs of stiffness?
I create gentle, effective plans and treatment to reduce discomfort and improve daily movement. Whether it’s age-related arthritis or early joint issues, I can help:
Ease pain and inflammation
Improve strength and coordination
Support long-term joint health
Injury Prevention & Performance Support
For active, working, or sporting dogs, physiotherapy can help:
Prevent injuries
Improve fitness and flexibility
Enhance performance safely
I tailor sessions to your dog’s lifestyle and physical goals
Conservative Management
Not all dogs are able to undergo surgery and that’s okay.
I work with you to build a care plan that manages your dog’s condition safely and compassionately, without surgery. We’ll focus on maintaining comfort, function, and quality of life.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my dog needs physiotherapy?
If your dog has had surgery, shows signs of pain, stiffness, or struggles with movement, physio can support their recovery, comfort, and mobility.
Do you offer home visits or online options?
All in-person sessions are in my Rosudgeon clinic, but I offer a detailed 13-week video rehab plan you can follow from home.
What conditions do you treat?
I support dogs with post-surgical recovery (like CCL repair), arthritis, joint issues, spinal injuries, dysplasia, and more.
Can physiotherapy help older dogs?
Absolutely. Gentle mobility work can make a big difference in comfort, confidence, and quality of life for senior dogs.
