We are a mobile Vet Physio practice, meaning we provide the valuable service of coming to you! Your animals can enjoy their physiotherapy sessions in their own environments, where they feel most comfortable.

We have a treatment base for small animals at Vetscape Animal Hospital in Paarl, where we see in-hospital patients, assist with discharging orthopedic and neurological patients, and see out-patients in the brand new physio centre✨️

CONSISTENCY IS KEY! 🔑💪

Home exercises in physiotherapy aren't just a routine - they're the building blocks to recovery.

Adhereing to home exercise plans doesn't have to be a struggle. All it takes is setting aside 5-10 minutes at a time to complete some exercises. The best part? Your veterinary physiotherapist has tailored a program specific to your pet's needs! Just a few short sessions a week can make a world of difference in their recovery.

And if that's not enough to convince you, maybe the benefits will:

✅ Enhances pain management
✅ Promotes a smoother recovery
✅ Ensures a stronger, healed end product
✅ Builds strength
✅ Improves flexibility
✅ Enhances mobility
✅ Reduces the risk of re-injury
✅ Mental stimulation, especially for pets needing to be confined
✅ Promotes bonding with your pet

Every rep brings you closer to your goals! 🏆 Remember that quality reps matter more than the quantity of the reps. 🏋️

So why wait? Set aside those minutes and watch your furry friend thrive! Let's turn those small steps into giant leaps! 🐾💥
