PAIN MANAGEMENT

A pain management consultation is designed for animals who have received the Initial Assessment and require an appointment to aid pain management. This can be provided in the forms of:

  • Manual Therapy (Massage)

  • Laser Therapy

  • PEMF (Magnetic Therapy)

  • Thermotherapy

  • TENs (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation)

​

After the treatment I will evaluate the progression of pain, if it has improved then we will continue with the plan, however if there is regression I will adjust or refer you to your vet depending on the pain response regression.

BE
READY

What to know before appointment.

When booking a pain relief appointment it follows an initial or referral appointment therefore you will not require any forms for your appointment. However I may contact you prior to the appointment if I need an additional insurance form. If there is regression and no improvement I may refer you to the referring vet for an evaluation therefore I will send a referral form on your behalf.

​

Please keep record of your animals progression throughout the plan, a diary is a brilliant way of documenting any improvements, difficulties, behaviour or regression. I will ask for an update at the beginning of each session to make sure the plan is suitable and if not I can tailor it. 

​

If your animal is on medicated pain relief (prescribed by your vet) please keep detailed records of your adminstration, if you finish your course or if the vet has lengthened/adjusted the course. Please take note if your animals behaviour or health changes in response to the medication (diarrhoea, vomitting, passing blood, refusing to eat etc)
