In October 2021, Donna spoke to Silvia, a vet originating from Slovakia. If you would like to watch the entire interview, you can do so here.
During their brilliantly interesting chat, Donna asked Silvia what she loves about physio and Silvia gave a fabulous answer:
You can use it as a preventative thing as well as a treatment and itโs a great complimentary thingโฆ complimentary to your surgery, medications, all of the stuff that vets do. Youโd be missing out on half the treatment if you didnโt have physios or all the other part of the team that help the animal to recoverโฆ if itโs say a post-surgery physio. Itโs just somebody that I can work with. Iโm by no means somebody whoโs like โoh I know it allโ: I need a team, Iโm such a team person.
