About Us

We are a mobile Veterinary Physiotherapy practice with qualified physiotherapists covering most of the Western Cape area surrounding Cape Town. We specialise in treating equines and small animals (canines and felines).  Apart from doing home/yard visits, we also work closely with local veterinary practices and have established small animal treatment bases at Vetscape Animal Hospital in Paarl as well as Country Animal Clinic in Somerset West. All our therapists are proudly registered with the South African Veterinary Council.
