An animal that moves well is naturally balanced. This is the core of my philosophy as a dog physiotherapist. For me as a physiotherapist, motor disorders mean that something is out of balance and needs to be brought back into natural equilibrium. The visible disorder is often just the tip of the iceberg. It may have resulted from a protective posture with which the animal tries to compensate for a problem. Underneath the symptom there may be a whole chain of blockages, muscle, joint or neurological problems. For me it is extremely important not to treat the visible symptom first and foremost, but to clarify the physiological causes and address them correctly therapeutically.
