Manual Techniques

Here at EMpower Vet Physio, we believe manual techniques should make up the majority of all treatment sessions. Massage is key to promoting blood flow and breaking apart adhesions within muscles and fascia. By using our hands, we can constantly assess how the tissues are feeling and reacting to treatment, allowing us to tailor our approach to the animal in front of us. It also helps to build trust between the animal and physiotherapist, promoting relaxation during the session.

Manual techniques include:

-Massage

-Stretching

-Mobilisations

-Myofascial release

-Trigger point therapy
