Physiotherapy and hydrotherapy is increasingly recognized as having a key role in canine rehabilitation. Recovery from musculoskeletal disorders can be dramatically improved by application of proper technique.
What is physiotherapy in the context of canine rehabilitation? This course explains what is involved in a physiotherapy assessment. We further explore the clinical reasoning process, and of course the indications for physiotherapy. There will be a focus on recognition of musculoskeletal pain in dogs, looking at \'typical patients\'. A case study discussion will help you understand the day’s concepts.
This is Part Two of a three part series on hydrotherapy and physiotherapy.
Delegates will consider:
• When to use physiotherapy
• The physiotherapy assessment
• Recognizing canine pain
• When to use Hydrotherapy
• How to perform Hydrotherapy
• Health and Safety issues in Hydrotherapy
• Hydrotherapy and Water Chemistry
Who is it for?
This course is recommended for student vet nurses, qualified veterinary nurses, or veterinary staff interested in hydrotherapy and physiotherapy.
