As you all know, one thing we do every single session is watch your dog move 🐾

Dynamic movement is one of the biggest parts of our assessment. It tells us so much, how they’re compensating, where they may be uncomfortable, what’s improving, and what still needs support.

It’s what we’ve trained for over 4 long years… training our eyes to notice the subtle things:
✨ a shortened stride
✨ uneven weight bearing
✨ stiffness through transitions
✨ posture changes
✨ muscle compensation
✨ tiny movement patterns most people would never spot

Every step your dog takes gives us information, and it all helps us create the best treatment plan possible 💙

If your dog has osteoarthritis (OA), you may have noticed the little changes creeping in like stiffness after resting, slowing down on walks, struggling to get up, or slipping on hard floors. OA is a common condition caused by wear and tear in the joints, leading to pain, inflammation, and reduced mobility that can make everyday activities harder for your dog.

Simple changes at home can really help ❤️
🐾 Non-slip flooring for better grip
🐾 Orthopaedic beds for comfort and support
🐾 Gentle exercise to keep joints moving
🐾 Stretches and remedial exercises prescribed by a qualified therapist to improve strength and mobility

Small changes can make a big difference. Contact us to find out more www.driscolltherapy.co.uk

We’re proud to be registered with RAMP (The Register of Animal Musculoskeletal Practitioners) 🐾

As the veterinary physiotherapy industry is unfortunately not regulated in the UK, organisations like RAMP help protect owners and their dogs by ensuring practitioners are properly qualified, insured and working to high professional standards. Steph and Diana renew their RAMP registration every year to maintain these standards.

So what does this mean for you and your dog? It means your dog is being treated by practitioners committed to safe, evidence-based care, alongside completing regular CPD (continued professional development) hours each year to keep knowledge and skills up to date.

When choosing a physiotherapist, hydrotherapist or other animal therapist, we always recommend checking they are registered with governing bodies such as RAMP, CHA, NARCH or IRVAP to help ensure you and your animals are in safe and qualified hands.🐶

As anyone who brings their dog to us will know - we REALLY… (and I mean REALLY) share in the things your dogs are working towards 🤍
If your dog takes their first steps after spinal surgery… that’s dinner table conversation in Steph’s house 🏡
If your dog starts doing things again that they hadn’t been able to… Diana has probably told Steph before you’ve even left the car park🏎️

We genuinely love being part of every win, big or small, for the dogs we’re lucky enough to support.

So today we’re celebrating two of our “Driscoll Dogs” - Indie and Murphy - who made it onto the green carpet at Crufts this year with the Young Kennel Club and did their owners incredibly proud 🌟 - an IMMENSE achievement for both dogs and their amazing owners.

Well done Indie and Well done Murphy 🐾

Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD) affects the spine and can cause pain, weakness, or even paralysis in dogs. The good news? Physiotherapy can play a huge role in recovery and quality of life.

Every dog is different, and with the right care, many go on to live happy, active lives again.
If your dog has been diagnosed with IVDD or you’ve noticed signs like reluctance to move, wobbliness, or pain…don’t wait.

✨Case Study✨

Morris was referred to us following a disc extrusion and hemilaminectomy surgery. A condition commonly seen in Dachshunds due to the breed’s predisposition to intervertebral disc disease (IVDD), where disc material presses on the spinal cord and can cause pain, weakness, and loss of mobility.

When Morris first arrived, he had significant muscle loss, increased heat and inflammation through his back, poor core strength, reduced coordination, and a pronounced arch in his spine.

Fast forward to today: Morris has developed strong muscle in his hind limbs, his posture has improved, inflammation has resolved, and his overall strength and endurance have also improved, allowing him to stand and walk for longer periods. 💪🏻

We have loved supporting Morris throughout his physiotherapy journey and are incredibly proud of his progress 🐶

⭐️Meet the team⭐️- Zuco

Official title: Head of Morale & Senior Cuddle Therapist.

Zuco is Steph’s dog and our most essential team member. He attends training days to assist with demonstrations (mainly by supervising and judging our technique), and according to Diana, he gives the best cuddles, a skill he takes very seriously. When he’s not boosting staff wellbeing or stealing the spotlight, Zuco can be found managing sofa space at home with Steph and generally getting up to no good. 🐶
