Adam Gibbins, RCH.

Owner and Hydrotherapist (NARCH)

I am passionate about the health and well-being of the dogs in our care. I am a firm believer that we should be caring for dogs and advising owners in equal measure about how we can collectively improve the day to day life of all the dogs that we treat.

Over 10 years ago I was lucky enough to have a career change which allowed me to train as a canine hydrotherapist and then work full time within the hydrotherapy world as a qualified NARCH Registered Canine Hydrotherapist. Since 2017 I have held the role of Chairperson for National Association of Canine Hydrotherapists, who are the largest register of hydrotherapists with the highest ongoing standards within the industry.

Working as a hydrotherapist and business owner allows me to have a thorough understanding of all elements that we need to bring together. My team consists of hydrotherapists and physiotherapists, with a pool and underwater treadmill at the centre. We additionally include electrotherapy in our offering which can treat a wide range of canine conditions: OA, cruciate damage, hip dysplasia and spinal cases making up the majority of our work.

Hydrotherapy is an ever improving and changing industry which is great news for our patients. The developments in knowledge/learning directly stream down into how we treat our patients, and working so closely with the veterinary world enables the team to continually learn and develop their skills and knowledge base.
