Information for Vets & Allied Professionals
The Process
All treatments are conducted with veterinary consent following completion of the attached referral form. As standard, we request an updated referral form every 6 months.
If you would like to refer an animal for physiotherapy, please complete and sign the attached referral form and return over email to emilyphysiovet@gmail.com
Referral
All physiotherapy treatments are undertaken by Emily Harris. Emily is a fully insured, MSc Veterinary Physiotherapist with accreditation from the Institute of Registered Veterinary and Animal Physiotherapists IRVAP(VP)(ICH) and Register of Animal Musculoskeletal Practitioners RAMP. Emily also holds a Level 3 Small Animal Hydrotherapy qualification accredited by the SEG. Treatments use a combination of manual therapies, electrotherapies and remedial exercises bespoke to individual patient needs.
Treatment
We are strong believers in the multidisciplinary team! We encourage a multimodal and universal approach to ensure the best possible animal care. Whether vet or paraprofessional, we always welcome a full case history and discussion.
A physiotherapy report is communicated to the veterinarian after a patient’s initial consultation and treatment. This outlines physical assessment findings, treatments conducted and physiotherapeutic aims. A full update is then completed after a minimum of 10 sessions. Updates can be more frequent on request.
