Chirodogs - Physiotherapie für Tiere - Manuela Skala

Ugi, 9 years old, “the fur-of-my-life”: “July was the worst month of my life. I had to go through a knee operation AND my parents brought a new baby to our home and I had to share the living room with him! Luckily my parents love me so much and they wanted me to feel better so they called Manuela and asked her if she could assist. Every time Manuela came to visit us I had so much fun. She always asked me first how am I feeling today and she used this strange lazer thingy to help the healing process and did a lottt of massage. I felt like the queen of the house! Now I’m happy to say that my limp is gone and I’m painfree. I’m again happy (and I stop hating my new baby roommate 😂) Thank you Manuela. You are the best.”

For the past year, my 15-year-old dog has been under the care of Manuela. She has been a blessing for my beloved pet, who suffers from arthritis in her back legs. Manuela's physiotherapy sessions have been a source of immense relief and comfort for my dog. What's remarkable is that my dog looks forward to each massage without any stress or anxiety. Between sessions, Manuela provides me with exercises and 'homework' that are easy to practice with my dog every morning. These exercises have been instrumental in maintaining and improving my dog's mobility and overall well-being. Despite living on the opposite side of the city, we willingly make the one-hour journey to Manuela's studio. Her care and expertise have made a world of difference in my dog's life.

I adopted a small spitz from abroad who had operations on both her hind knees due to patella. When she arrived she was only using 3 legs and hobbled around. I took Onyx to see Manuela and after 3 sessions she has made an amazing recovery, confidently walking on all fours! Manuela is a fantastic dog physiotherapist. She is very kind, punctual, professional and is easy to talk to. Her practice is welcoming and clean and felt like a very safe and comforting place to take my dog (who is still quite nervous). She is definitely a dog whisperer, as her demeanour immediately put Onyx at ease while she massaged her legs and did various exercises with her. Between each session she also gave me homework which was very helpful. We saw a noticeable difference after each session. I think Onyx recovered faster and in a better condition had we just left it alone without any physiotherapy. These sessions were well worth it and I whole heartedly recommend her services.

Manuela is a fantastic therapist. She treats our 12 year old female Spanish water dog since two years who suffers from severe hip dysplasia and has a hard time walking. After every treatment there is a huge difference and it is visible that she has less pain than before. I can highly recommend Manuela to every pet owner.

Our dog Brovko had a surgery on torn cruciate ligaments and totally refused to use his operated leg after the surgery. We were unsure already if he will ever walk again. Manuela was kinda our last hope. And well, what can I say, it worked, our dog walks now :) Our dog is not the easiest one to perform massage on, he hates to be touched, but Manuela was brave enough to continue and she also taught me to do all the manipulations with his body. And of course the water therapy is a bliss! Thanks Manuela!
