Sarah Ward- Clinical Services Principal

As a canine specialist in physiotherapy, hydrotherapy , behavioural solutions and canine rehabilitation, I help you manage the best way forward to improve your dog’s mobility and quality of life.

My vision is to offer the best canine clinical services to Suffolk and the surrounding areas, providing a high quality holistic approach for dogs and supporting their owners. 

OUR FACILITIES

Our suite of interlinking therapy rooms includes clinics and wet rooms with a heated hydro pool, aquatic treadmill, therapeutic ramps, therapy shower systems, underwater pods and a therapeutic massager.

We offer advanced aquatic treatments to include aquatic canine “pawlates”; canine “tai chi”; body balance conditioning and natural balanced motion work.

Using canine Therapeutic Handling techniques we work with your dog and gently guide and movement shape your dog into the hydro pool or aquatic treadmill to achieve a calm and controlled entry. We always have “hands on contact” with your dog whilst administering their selected treatment techniques. 

K9HS maintains the highest water quality and we have regular water testing and certification.
