Online Consultation

What are Online Consultations? 

Due to the lockdown restrictions, location or personal preference, you may want an Animal Physiotherapy consultation online. This means you can get the professional opinion of a Veterinary Physiotherapist in the safety and comfort of your own home.

These online consultations are here to provide help and advice on the following:

• Your pet is post surgery for an orthopaedic or neurological condition and you require help with the discharge instructions or rehabilitation techniques to help manage post operative care.
• Your pet is suffering with a re-occurring injury and you would like some advice on how to manage it.
• Your animal has specific behaviour needs, which could mean they struggle being handled by a stranger however you need rehab advice.
•  Your pet has been diagnosed with an ongoing condition such as osteoarthritis and you would like advice on future management.
• You have had a few sessions of in person physio and you would like a follow up.
• You don't have a local Veterinary Physiotherapist in your area.
• You have noticed a change in your dogs behaviour, they seem to be slowing down and you are noticing differences in how they move and would like further management advice.
• You have further questions about physiotherapy and would like to know more about how it can help you and your pet.

How do the Online Consultations work?

In advance of the session I will:

• Contact your vet to gain knowledge on your pets relevant history.
• I will email you questions to gain a better understanding of what you want to gain from the session.
• Ask you to send me a video of your pet moving around in advance. Giving me a better understanding of the issue and providing a much more in depth consult.
• Payment will be required at the time of booking (BACS transfer).

• You will gain a detailed movement analysis.
• Body Condition Score
