Unsure if physiotherapy is the right path for your dog? 🐾

Watching your dog struggle with mobility is stressful, and knowing which treatment or professional to turn to can be overwhelming. I want to ensure that every dog I see is a clinical fit for the services I provide—and that you feel confident in the care plan we develop.

That’s why I’m now offering FREE 15-Minute Discovery Calls.

This isn't a sales call; it’s a clinical starting point. During our conversation, we will:

- Discuss your concerns: From recent surgeries to "slowing down" in senior years.

- Review their history: A brief overview of your dog’s current mobility and any veterinary diagnoses.

- Determine suitability: I’ll provide professional insight into whether physiotherapy is the most effective next step for your dog's specific needs.

My goal is to provide clarity and a clear roadmap for your dog’s recovery or maintenance. No pressure, just professional guidance.

✨ Ready to chat? Send me a Message or Text (07568536887) and we will get a time arranged to have a chat.

Pet Performance Physio has grown soo much in 1 year, from helping older dogs enjoy their walks again, attending markets to educate owners on the benefit of physiotherapy, rehabbing post surgey cases to partnering up with to be able to offer physiotherapy along side their fabulous hydrotherapy facilities.

If I had listened to people telling me to give up and get an office job, I think I may have gone insane!

Don't give up on your dream job! Good things are around the corner 🥰🐕

Stretching after massage or exercise is a great way to reduce muscle tension.

Last week one of my clients went from not being able to sit at all, due to severe muscle pain and tension in their back, to being comfortable enough to sit for 20seconds without discomfort.

What made the difference?

It wasn't just the Laser therapy and physio they recieved at the 1st appointment, it was the massage techniques and home adaptations I had advised the owner the carry out that made the biggest difference.

Physiotherapy isnt just about the appointment with the therapist, its the little things you can do as the owner on daily basis.

If your keen to find out how you can help your dog feel more comfortable, send me a DM and we can have a chat 😊

When it comes to senior dog mobility, weight management is a medical priority, not just a cosmetic one. 🦴

For a dog with osteoarthritis or age-related joint degeneration, even a small amount of excess weight creates a "double hit":

- Mechanical Load: Extra weight puts direct physical stress on weakened joints, accelerating the breakdown of cartilage.

- Systemic Inflammation: Adipose tissue (fat) isn't just stored energy; it’s biologically active and produces pro-inflammatory chemicals that can actually worsen joint pain.

Maintaining a lean body condition is one of the most effective ways to extend your dog’s mobility. If your senior dog is struggling to lose weight because they can't exercise like they used to, physiotherapy can help. We use low-impact movements to maintain muscle mass and metabolic rate without overstressing their frame.

"He seems like a different dog after his session!" 😍

One of our favorite tools for our senior patients is Photobiomodulation (Laser Therapy). It sounds high-tech, but for your dog, it feels like a warm and relaxing.

Why seniors love it:
✅ Reduces inflammation in "rusty" joints.
✅ Speeds up cellular repair.
✅ Provides non-invasive pain relief without the side effects of some medications.

Paired with gentle manual massage to release compensatory tension, it’s a restorative treatment designed to improve your dog's daily comfort and mobility.

Does your senior dog need a little extra spring in their step this month?

January is often when we notice the things we brushed off in December 🐾

The busy holidays, colder weather, and changes in routine can highlight things like stiffness, slower walks, or difficulty getting up.

If you’ve noticed changes recently, now is a great time to get on top of them before they progress further.

Small issues are always easier to manage early 💛

3 simple ways to support your dog’s joints this winter ❄️🐾

1️⃣ Shorter, more frequent walks instead of one long outing
2️⃣ Gentle warm-up before walks (especially for senior dogs)
3️⃣ Avoid slippery floors where possible

Cold weather can increase stiffness, so small changes at home can really help keep your dog comfortable and confident moving.

Simple changes. Big impact.

Is your dog really just slowing down… or could something else be going on? 👀

Many dogs show early signs of discomfort through subtle changes — walking slower, hesitating on stairs, struggling after rest, or seeming less enthusiastic on walks.

These are often early indicators of stiffness, weakness, or joint discomfort rather than “just age”.

The good news? Addressing these changes early can make a huge difference to comfort and mobility.

Sometimes small signs tell us the most 💛
