About Furry Friends Physio

Furry Friends Physio is a veterinary physiotherapy practice, started and run by Carla Dixon MCSP ACPAT Cat A, in 2007.  The practice is based in Leicestershire, and Carla is happy to travel anywhere within the county, as well as to the neighbouring counties of Warwickshire and Northamptonshire.  If you are interested in veterinary physiotherapy but live outside of these areas, go to the ACPAT website (www.acpat.org) where you will be able to find a Cat A physiotherapist in your area in the 'Find a Physio' section.

Furry Friends Physio is currently a mobile service, providing physiotherapy and rehabilitation to animals in their own environment, or for dogs, at a number of local hydrotherapy pools where clinics can be held.

Furry Friends Physio mainly treats dogs and horses, but can also treat cats and any other animal which may require physiotherapy.

Furry Friends Physio believes in offering a service which is convenient and easy to use for animal owners.  This includes offering evening and weekend appointments, at times which fit in with owner's busy schedules.

Furry Friends Physio also believes in making veterinary physiotherapy as cost effective as possible for owners.  A large part of our work is educating owners about the condition they are dealing with, and giving them exercises and programmes to carry out at home.  We also realise that in most cases it isn’t realistic for us to see an animal on a daily basis, even though this may bring about the best results, in terms of our time and the cost to the owner. Therefore we also have some pieces of equipment which can be hired out by the owner an a short term basis to provide the treatment needed.
