Pain Clinic Services
Mae Faith Referrals yn wasanaeth milfeddygol rheoli poen, adsefydlu, anaestheteg, gofal lliniarol a ffisiotherapi yn Ne Cymru yn unig. Mae’r clinigau’n cael eu gweithredu gan Dr Katie Smithers BVSc PGCert(VPS) CertAVP(VA) MRCVS, sy’n Uwch Ymarferydd mewn Anesthesia Milfeddygol a gydnabyddir gan yr RCVS a darperir y gwasanaeth ffisiotherapi siartredig gan Manessa Faal - Ffisiotherapydd Siartredig.
Rydym yn gweithio gyda chleifion sy’n cael llawdriniaeth yn ogystal â’r rhai sy’n byw gyda phoen acíwt a chronig. Rydym yn gweithio i nodi a lleoleiddio poen eich anifail anwes, yn seiliedig ar arholiad corfforol a phrofion diagnostig. Unwaith y byddwn yn nodi'r achos, rydym yn creu cynllun rheoli poen aml-fodd unigol ar gyfer eich anifail anwes. Mae rheoli poen a ffisiotherapi yn gwella'r broses adfer o lawdriniaeth, salwch, anaf, a chyflyrau poen cronig. Rydym yn croesawu atgyfeiriadau ar gyfer cwn, cathod ac anifeiliaid egsotig a cheisiadau am gyngor gan filfeddygon.

Canine Veterinary Physiotherapy Services
It is hard for animals to communicate when they are in pain or have sustained an injury and they will often hide pain and discomfort. Chartered Physiotherapists utilise a wide range of assessment techniques in order to locate and treat problem areas, and therefore help you to maintain your dog’s health and fitness, whether they are a show, working dog or pet. If your dog exhibits or suffers from any of the following, they may benefit from the input of a Chartered Physiotherapist:
Neurological conditions
- Elbow/Hip dysplasia
- Age related joint stiffness, decreasing function/ mobility
- Wounds
- Spinal stiffness/ Soreness/ Intervertebral disc disease
- Lameness
- Rehabilitation following orthopaedic surgery
- Osteoarthritis
- Trauma/ soft tissue injuries to tendons, muscles and ligaments
- Weight or inactivity/obesity problems
- Uncharacteristic behaviour changes
During the physiotherapy session a detailed history will be taken followed by gait analysis and clinical palpation.
Treatment will be provided as necessary and may include:
Soft tissue work – massage, myofascial release trigger point release
Joint mobilisations
Exercises – stretches, strengthening and proprioception exercises
Electrotherapy – ultrasound, TENS, muscle stimulation and LASER, Microcurrent, PEME, thermo or cryotherapy
Thermoplastic splinting for orthopaedic and neurological issues
