Physiotherapy because ‘Prevention is better than cure’
Physiotherapy aims to restore balance and facilitate the body's own healing responses rather
than to target individual disease processes or stop troublesome symptoms. This links directly
with the areas of complementary medicine
"Physiotherapy is a health care profession concerned with function and movement and maximising
potential:
• it uses physical approaches to promote, maintain and restore physical, psychological and
social well-being, taking account of variations in health status
• it is science-based, committed to extending, applying, evaluating and reviewing the
evidence that underpins and informs its practice and delivery
• the exercise of clinical judgement and informed interpretation is at its core."
Veterinary Physiotherapist is the prestigious title awarded to only chartered physiotherapists who have
graduated from the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons.

The title "Chartered Physiotherapist" is protected by law and
can only be used by physiotherapists who have achieved a
high level of academic and practical training in all aspects of
physiotherapy and are consequently qualified and registered to
practice. When choosing a physiotherapist ensure that they
have the letters SRP (State Registered Physiotherapist) after
their name.
Note:
Legislation stipulates that animals may only be treated by
a Veterinary Surgeon or someone authorised by a
Veterinary Surgeon. Members of ACPAT adhere to this
requirement to safeguard the interest of the animal
|
THE LAW HAS JUST CHANGED
Membership of the CSP and ACPAT includes Professional Liability Insurance.
The Health Professions Council (HPC) is the regulatory body for health professionals.
From July 2005 the title ‘Physiotherapist’ and ‘Physical Therapist’ will be protected by law and must only be used by health professionals
registered with the HPC.
Those who use a professional title that they are not entitled to use can and will be prosecuted.
HPC registration replaces the former State Registration scheme (SRP).
All ACPAT Category A and B members are Chartered Physiotherapists.
Graduates of the Royal Veterinary College (University of London) in Veterinary Physiotherapy (MSc or Post
Graduate Diploma) are awarded the title ‘Veterinary Physiotherapist’ and are Category A members of ACPAT.
Choosing an ACPAT registered Chartered Physiotherapist ensures professional care for your animal.
