Physiotherapy for your dogs

Giving your dog the best at every stage of life

Your dog is so much more than just a pet — he is part of your family. The one who makes you smile, even after a long day. And, you want the best for him at every stage of his life. Whether he is recovering from an injury, healing after surgery, or simply starting to slow down with age, his needs change… and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed sometimes.

That’s where I come in. My role is to support you when you feel a little lost about what your dog is going through. Through my listening skills, my compassionate approach and my strong expertise in canine physiotherapy, I’m here to help your four-legged friend regain mobility and comfort while guiding you every step of the way.

Animal physiotherapy is a therapeutic approach that combines manual techniques, targeted exercises, and personalized advice to improve your dog’s quality of life. It helps relieve pain, improve joint mobility, strengthen muscles, and support recovery after an injury or surgery.

Each session is designed to bring greater comfort and well-being to your dog. Whether it’s to help them move more freely, ease discomfort, strengthen their muscles, or simply help them feel better in their body, my services are tailored to meet their specific needs.

Below, you’ll find the services I offer for your dog, along with some of the equipment I use during sessions such as hydrotherapy and laser therapy.

I use hydrotherapy and physiotherapy for your dog, but that’s not all! Here are some of the pieces of equipment I use during sessions:

My hands

Although the clinic is equipped with many tools, there are times when I don’t use any, depending on the dog’s specific needs. My hands are essential in my physiotherapy practice: they allow me to palpate, assist, mobilize, and help your dog in a precise manner. No device can ever replace the direct contact and listening to your pet’s body.

The underwater treadmill

Séance d'Hydrothérapie d'un chien à Genève

The hydrotherapy treadmill allows dogs to exercise against the resistance of water while benefiting from its natural buoyancy, which reduces the impact of gravity on their body. This means they can move more easily, with less strain on their joints and muscles. However, this equipment isn’t suitable for all dogs or all conditions. While many owners appreciate it, I cannot guarantee it will be appropriate for your dog. Each session is tailored to their specific needs.

Laser therapy

The laser emits a special light on the area being treated to help relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing, all without causing any discomfort for your dog.

Mobility equipment

I also use specialized equipment such as balance cushions and cavalettis. These tools help work on your dog’s coordination, proprioception, muscle tone, and joint mobility.

A few details about the physiotherapy sessions:

The packages can be paid in installments: two payments for the 5-session package, and three payments for the 10-session package. The price per session is fixed, regardless of the equipment used. I want every animal to receive the care that best suits them, without the choice being influenced by cost. My goal is to tailor the session to their needs, not to make you choose between effectiveness and budget.

The sessions take place at the Moillebeau Veterinary Clinic, located at 42 Moillebeau Street in Geneva (Switzerland), 25 minutes from Nyon.

Learn more about the physiotherapy sessions – your frequently asked questions:

How many sessions are needed to see lasting results for my dog?

Each animal is unique, as are its needs, so it’s difficult to set an exact number of sessions in advance. During our first meeting, we’ll take the time to discuss your dogs condition and your goals to define an approach that suits both of you.
What I can tell you is that real change takes time. Two or three sessions won’t be enough for lasting results – after all, it’s not magic (although I’d love to have a magic wand to help your animals faster!). It’s the same as with us humans – when we start exercising or doing physiotherapy, the changes aren’t visible after just 2-3 sessions. The same goes for our animals! Consistency and patience are the keys to progress!

Where do the sessions take place?

The sessions take place at the Moillebeau Veterinary Clinic, located at 42 Moillebeau Street in Geneva (Switzerland). The clinic is located 25 minutes from Nyon.

How often should my dog have physiotherapy sessions?

The frequency of sessions depends on the specific needs of each dog. Generally, I like to start with one session per week. This allows me to ensure that your dog is progressing in the right direction, and that the exercises performed at home are well understood, making adjustments if necessary.
In more complex cases, two sessions per week may be considered initially.
As progress is made, the sessions will gradually become less frequent: every two weeks, then once a month, depending on your dog’s progress and comfort.
The goal is to adapt the follow-up based on your dog’s progress to provide personalized and sustainable care.

Do I need to buy equipment to do the exercises?

In most cases, purchasing equipment is not necessary. I always prefer using everyday objects that you likely already have at home, such as large books, cushions, or broom handles.
There are rare situations where I may recommend a specific piece of equipment, but it’s never mandatory. Some pet owners choose to invest in equipment, but I always adapt to the resources available at home to ensure effective sessions without unnecessary expenses.

What happens during the physiotherapy sessions?

The physiotherapy sessions start with a moment of exchange and observation. We take the time to understand how your dog moves, identify any small tensions or weak areas, and define together what will work best for them.
Then, we will begin with exercises tailored to their specific needs, focusing on regaining mobility, strengthening weakened muscles, and relieving painful areas.
Each session is fully personalized, in line with the assessment, your goals, and your veterinarian’s recommendations.
And between sessions? No way we’re just sitting around doing nothing! I will give you simple advice and exercises to do at home to keep progressing. We form a team, and with a little consistency and patience, we will help your dog feel better and more comfortable in its body.

I don’t know if what you’re offering is suitable for my dog?

No problem! Don’t hesitate to contact me so we can look together at whether the sessions are suitable for your dog.
