It does not always take a direct trauma or an accident for pain and tension to develop. Small, repetitive stresses and strains can be equally harmful to the body. It is therefore important for us to recognise small changes in our animals physique and movement before minor discomfort turns to pain. By recognising common causes and symptoms of back pain you can also help prevent its occurrence and reduce the stresses on their bodies.
The symptoms are not always easy to notice, but I can help you recognise any changes, the signs of pain along with common causes of these symptoms. Early recognition can also help prevent the symptoms from occurring.
