Online physiotherapy consultations
Tethered Cord Syndrome
I offer personalised online consultations for dogs with Tethered Cord Syndrome (pre-hab, rehab and conservative management), based on both human and veterinary physiotherapy experience and direct, hands-on experience rehabilitating my own dog through this condition.
Tethered cord syndrome is complex and often misunderstood. Every dog presents differently and it is essential to ensure a a tailored, whole-dog approach to their care.
Initial consultation
During our consultation, I will:
-
Take a detailed history of your dog’s symptoms, lifestyle, and medical background
-
Review any medical history, videos or images you can provide.
-
Provide a structured, practical rehabilitation plan you can implement at home
-
Demonstrate and explain the plan
-
Help you better understand your dogs condition and the goals of rehab.
-
Review your dog performing the rehab exercises live.
Cost: £50 initial consult for 60 minutes
Follow up appointments: £30
Benefits of virtual consultations
Given that many TCS dogs present with behavioural issues, virtual physiotherapy is ideal as it allows us to assess your dog in a calm and non-stressful environment. During the session we can work on
-
Targeted physiotherapy exercises
-
Mobility and strengthening work
-
Environmental adaptations to reduce strain
-
Guidance on pacing, flare-up management, and long-term support
These sessions are designed to empower you with clear, realistic strategies to support your dog’s comfort, mobility, and quality of life.
Please note: This service does not replace veterinary diagnosis or treatment. I work alongside your primary vet and require veterinary consent before physiotherapy treatment can take place.
