Arthritic Clinic

Has your dog been diagnosed with arthritis by a vet? Are you unsure what this means for your dog or how you can help them? And you want to do your best by them to be as mobile and pain free as possible? Then our arthritis clinic is for you!

At RA Canine Therapist we have arthritic clinics for you to book onto, which can be either a one off session or regular support/treatment sessions. The arthritic clinic allows you to gain as much information as you need to help support your dog. Please see our prices and packages below.

Get Support

Our Arthritic Clinic has been designed to give owners the best and up to date information on how to support their arthritic dog.

Any questions or concerns you have can be addressed, leaving you feeling confident on how to best support your dog. You can also opt for one of our monthly support plans.

You will receive a comprehensive welcome pack during your consultation which provides you with lots of information and tools to help support your arthritic dog.

Pain Assessment

We use the LOAD assessment tool to accurately assess your dogs pain levels. This helps to monitor your dogs condition and enables us to put in interventions when needed.

We will also body condition score your dog to see if they are underweight, overweight or at an ideal weight. As this will affect the progression of their arthritis.

Nutritional Guidance

Ensuring your dog is on the right food and supplements could really help to improve their mobility and quality of life. There is so much information out there but what is really helpful for your dog?

We will help guide you on what are the best supplements and diet for your dog to be on.

Exercise Guidance

How much exercise should your arthritic dog be getting? Where should you be exercising your dog? And for how long?

There is a fine balance between too much exercise and not enough. We are here to help guide you on the best kind of exercise for your arthritic dog and how much of it.

Musculoskeletal Assessment

Having regular musculoskeletal assessments done by a Canine Therapist are pivotal in ensuring your dogs joint health and muscular function, especially for arthritic dogs.

The assessment can highlight pain points and areas that need attention. The therapist can then advise on treatments that may be needed. It also helps us to monitor the progression of your dogs condition.
