Evidence-based physical rehabilitation and hydrotherapy designed to return mobility and comfort to your canine companion.
At Canine Kinetics, we believe recovery is a precise science supported by a compassionate environment. Our South Melbourne facility is purpose-built to provide a low-stress, high-focus setting where every movement is measured and every milestone is intentional.
By integrating human-grade physiotherapy techniques with specialised hydrotherapy, we address musculoskeletal and neurological conditions through the lens of longevity. We don’t just treat symptoms; we restore the foundational mechanics of movement.
A controlled, water-based environment for low-impact conditioning. Ideal for post-operative recovery, neurological rehabilitation, and managing chronic arthritis through buoyant, resistance-led exercise.
Qualified, hands-on intervention including myofascial release, dry needling, and therapeutic ultrasound to resolve soft tissue dysfunction.
Custom wheelchair fittings and orthotic assessments designed to provide structural support for dogs with permanent mobility challenges.
We provide comprehensive home exercise plans that extend the clinical work into your daily routine, ensuring progress is sustained through proprioception and coordination training.
