Snowy’s been working so hard with his underwater treadmill sessions following surgery for luxating patellas in both of his hindlimbs. He’s such a good boy, even if he does give us some seriously unimpressed looks throughout! Keep up the good work, Snowy!

Did you know that we stock a selection of JR Pet Products that you can purchase and use during your dog’s hydrotherapy or physiotherapy sessions?

Whether your dog is nervous about their first session, working on a new exercise, or simply deserves a little “well done” for being such a superstar, we have something to help make their visit a positive experience.

We met the lovely Rosie last week, who did brilliantly during her physiotherapy assessment. Rosie has osteoarthritis, and her owners are keen to support her comfort, mobility, and quality of life as she enjoys her senior years.

Following a full physiotherapy assessment, Rosie was treated with soft tissue massage and LASER therapy to help relieve pain and reduce muscular tension. We also sent her owners home with tailored exercises and advice to help support her day-to-day life. Her rehabilitation plan will include hydrotherapy, which will help improve her muscle strength, support her joints, and keep her moving as comfortably as possible.
Well done Rosie, we can’t wait to see you back for your next session!

Hydrotherapy isn’t just for injury rehabilitation…

Meet the very handsome Scruffy, a Wire-Haired Standard Dachshund who comes to see us for fitness and fun sessions!

Scruffy’s owners are taking a proactive approach to his health, helping him stay as strong, fit, and mobile as possible so he can enjoy his senior years to the fullest. Using the underwater treadmill, we’ve been working on building muscle mass, improving joint range of motion, and maintaining his overall strength and fitness. And can we all take a moment to appreciate his adorable dinosaur drying coat? I think you’ll agree it suits him perfectly!

🐾 Happy 12th Birthday, Duncan! 🐾

Duncan hasn’t had the easiest few weeks after some unexpected trips to the vets, but we’re so pleased to say he’s now on the road to recovery.

It’s always a pleasure to see Duncan, and we can’t wait to welcome him back for a birthday splash!

Wishing you a fantastic 12th birthday, Duncan! We hope your day is filled with treats, and cuddles.

Keeping Your Dog Safe During the Heatwave at FP Animal Therapy…

Hydrotherapy and physiotherapy provide a great way for your dog to continue exercising, maintain muscle strength and mobility, and support their rehabilitation without the risks associated with walking in extreme temperatures. We’ve made a few changes to ensure every hydrotherapy and physiotherapy session is as safe and enjoyable as possible.

Here’s what we’re doing:

Air Conditioning: Our hydrotherapy and physiotherapy rooms are fully air-conditioned, providing a cool and comfortable environment for both you and your dog to enjoy.

Cooler Water Temperatures: We’ve reduced the temperature of the water in both our pool and underwater treadmill to help keep your dog comfortable, while still maintaining the therapeutic temperature range needed for effective treatment.

Extra Monitoring: Our team will be keeping a close eye on every dog throughout their session for any signs that they may be struggling with the heat. Some dogs, such as senior, brachycephalic breeds, and those with heart or respiratory conditions, can find hot weather particularly challenging. If we feel it’s in your dog’s best interests, we may reduce the intensity or duration of their session to ensure they remain safe and comfortable.

Fresh Drinking Water: Fresh, clean water is always available, ensuring your dog can stay well hydrated during their appointment.

Cooling Rinses: Before and after hydrotherapy, we’ll rinse your dog with cool water to help lower their body temperature. We may also leave their coat slightly damper than usual so they stay cooler on the journey home.

Meet Jed, a gorgeous 1-year-old Cocker Spaniel!

Jed was referred to an orthopaedic specialist after developing a persistent left forelimb lameness and an abnormal gait. CT scans revealed a humeral intracondylar fissure in his left elbow and developmental changes affecting his right forelimb. He underwent specialist surgery to stabilise his elbow and improve joint function.

Since then, Jed has been attending regular hydrotherapy sessions with us to help rebuild muscle strength, improve his range of motion, and support his recovery. We’re delighted that his veterinary team are so pleased with his progress that they’ve now discharged him from their care!

Jed is continuing with hydrotherapy to keep building strength as it has become his favourite time of the week.

Keep up the fantastic work, Jed!

We are back running as normal after the chaos of the F1. Looking forward to seeing everyone and keeping cool in our air conditioned unit in another heatwave.

Dee Dee’s journey began with an in-depth assessment with Dr James Carrier at his pain clinic, which included the use of PainTrace, a wearable monitor that helps to quantify both acute and chronic pain. Following this comprehensive assessment, Dr James Carrier recommended a multimodal approach to support Dee Dee.

Her treatment plan includes medical management alongside physiotherapy and hydrotherapy, all working together to improve her comfort, mobility and overall quality of life.

Dee Dee has been doing so well and continues to progress each week. We love seeing her confidence grow with every session.

Look at lovely Duncan, who is doing so well with his swimming sessions!

Duncan comes for regular sessions to help manage and support his joints, reducing stiffness and discomfort. Swimming is a completely non-weight-bearing form of hydrotherapy, allowing dogs to move their joints more freely while helping to relieve stiffness. It also supports cardiovascular fitness and helps maintain muscle mass.

As part of his sessions, Duncan enjoys massage while resting on the underwater platform, which further helps to relieve muscular pain and tension.

Well done Duncan!
