Canine Muscle Therapy provides specialised treatment for dogs with Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD) and complex spinal conditions in Perth. Including cases not progressing with standard rehabilitation. We regularly treat Dachshunds and small breeds prone to disc injuries and spinal dysfunction.

Treatment supports all grades of IVDD (Grades 1-5) with a strong focus on more advanced complex cases, including dogs with ongoing neurological deficits or long term mobility limitations.

Bowen is suitable for dogs:

• Undergoing conservative management for IVDD
• In post-surgical spinal recovery
• Presenting with cervical, thoracolumbar, or lumbosacral involvement.
•  Experiencing secondary muscular tension, compensatory patterns, or reduced mobility.

Treatment Approach

Treatment uses Bowen Therapy alongside targeted soft-tissue work, supporting the nervous system and musculoskeletal recovery.

Gentle, tailored physical therapy exercises may also be introduced as part of a treatment program, depending on the individual case and stage of recovery.

This is provided alongside veterinary care and does not replace veterinary diagnosis or treatment.
