A background combining years of experience in both human neurological physiotherapy and specialist veterinary neuro rehabilitation, allows us to provide expert input for complex neurological presentations and long-term management.

Every neurological patient is different, which is why individualised rehabilitation and owner support are so important.

If you’d like to discuss your pet’s neurological rehabilitation needs, we would love to help.

You’ve been waiting ages for a vet physio appointment for that on-off, subtle lameness & on the day of assessment.....dog suddenly moves like an athlete with absolutely no concerns whatsoever 😂

Intermittent lameness is changeable, especially when dogs are excited or running on adrenaline.

But even when they seem “fine”, a trained eye can usually see asymmetry & compensations in movement, posture and muscle. If it's there, we'll usually find something!

If something feels slightly “off” with your dog’s movement, trust your instincts, get in touch to book an assessment today.

Some parts of veterinary physiotherapy are completely normal to us… but would sound absolutely unhinged anywhere else.

Every patient keeps us guessing, every day is different, and there’s never a dull moment. From big personalities to specific toy preferences, it’s all part of the job we love most.

We’ll always appreciate where our physiotherapy journey started, but working with small animals is truly the best kind of chaos.

Great to be out visiting local veterinary practices delivering Wag Rehab Lunch & Learn sessions.

We’ve been sharing how veterinary physiotherapy can support patients through rehabilitation, mobility management and long-term wellbeing, whilst building strong collaborative relationships with local vets and nurses.

Working together helps provide the best possible support for our patients!

Thank you to the teams who’ve welcomed us so far.

Peak performance starts with optimal movement.

It was great to spend time with Capable Canines members over the last few weeks reviewing movement, assessing performance, and helping handlers better understand how their dogs are moving.

Physiotherapy isn’t just for post-op or injured dogs. Performance reviews can help identify restrictions, compensation patterns and early signs of overload before they become bigger problems.

At Wag Rehab, we support sporting and active dogs as well as rehabilitation patients, helping them move efficiently, confidently and perform at their best.

During an assessment, we’re looking at the bigger picture: movement patterns, compensation strategies, posture, strength, discomfort signals, and the subtle ways dogs adapt when something doesn’t feel quite right.

At WAG Rehab, we assess what’s underneath the obvious.....because small signs often tell the biggest stories.

If you could reduce your dog’s risk of injury, wouldn’t you?

Injury prevention isn’t just for highly active dogs — it’s essential for every dog, at every life stage. Considered management can help improve enjoyment of activity & reduce injury risk.

Wag Rehab specialises in canine rehabilitation, injury prevention, and helping dogs move better, recover faster, and stay pain-free.

The baited reach is one of our most prescribed core strengthening exercises for dogs, helping to improve core engagement, stability and overall movement quality.

At Wag Rehab, we use targeted canine physiotherapy exercises like this to support recovery, prevent injury, and build strength safely.

Every dog is different, which is why a tailored programme following a professional assessment is key to effective rehabilitation.

Think physiotherapy is just for dogs? Think again.

Cats hide pain well — but that doesn’t mean they’re not struggling.

Physiotherapy can play a huge role in improving comfort, mobility and overall quality of life for our feline friends and most of them tolerate it really well.

If you’ve noticed subtle changes in your cat, it might be time to take a closer look.
