Driscoll Therapy

Nelly may be an older lady, but that doesn’t mean she can’t enjoy her walks! 🐾

This was Nelly on her holiday in the Netherlands 🇳🇱. Her lovely owners made sure she still got out and about, while keeping her comfortable and preventing fatigue and joint pain. When Nelly needs a rest, she gets the VIP treatment in her very own bike stroller! 🥹

As physiotherapists, we always encourage appropriate exercise because it’s all about finding the right balance.

P.s How cute does she look?! 🥰🐶

Steph & Diana are Canine First Aid Trained!

But what does this actually mean for you and your dog? 🐶❤️

It means that while we always do everything we can to keep your dog safe, we’re also prepared to respond calmly and confidently should an accident or emergency happen.

From minor injuries and cuts to recognising signs that your dog may need urgent veterinary attention, our Canine First Aid training gives us the knowledge and skills to provide appropriate first aid while getting the right veterinary help when needed. 🩹🐾

Your dog’s safety, comfort and wellbeing are always our top priority and having two trained team members means extra peace of mind for you. 💙

☀️ 🧊 ANNOUNCEMENT 🧊 ☀️

We are BEYOND pleased to report that we have had industrial air conditioning fitted in the clinic today!

We can all agree this summer has been warmer than all of us have ever intended. Your dog’s comfort in the clinic comes first for us - and we are so pleased to report it’s a chilly 16 degrees! 🌡️ 🧊

As you can see from the pictures, Steph is so happy she could cry happy tears 🥹 … about air conditioning!

A huge thanks to Daniel and Steve for putting us at the top of their list and doing everything they could over the last 10 weeks to make this happen for us. They kindly prioritised the clinic because they knew we were struggling to keep it cool for you all. Without a doubt two incredibly genuine men who have restored Steph’s faith in tradesmen.

Ever wondered what you’ll find when you walk into our canine physio clinic? 👀

From plenty of treats to rehabilitation equipment and advanced electrotherapies, we’ve created a space with everything your dog needs to recover, move better, and have a positive experience every step of the way. 💙

👀 Look closely… can you spot the difference in spinal posture?

Something as simple as where your dog’s food bowl sits can change the way they position their whole body while eating.

A bowl on the floor encourages many dogs to drop their head, flex through the neck and spine, and shift their weight onto their front end. Over time, this can place more demand on the shoulders and forelimbs.

Now picture a dog already dealing with joint stiffness, osteoarthritis, reduced mobility, or a shoulder injury…that extra effort may make mealtimes more challenging.

A raised bowl helps bring food closer to a more natural standing position, supporting better posture and reducing unnecessary strain.

Does your dog have a raised bowl? 🤔

Did you know…studies have shown that muscle mass and strength can start to decrease during periods of reduced movement, sometimes within just days to weeks!

This is where we come in 🐶🐾
Our role is to help your dog get moving again safely, with a tailored rehabilitation plan designed around them.

Without the correct exercises, dogs can sometimes compensate and continue moving in a way that puts extra strain on other areas.

Rehab isn’t just about doing exercises, it’s about doing the right exercises at the right time.
