Testimonials
Posted on Google Danielle GarberTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rochelle has been incredible with our 9 year old labradoodle who had been struggling with recurring elbow and shoulder injuries for a few years. Her treatment plan and lifestyle advice has been transformative. Red’s has almost no injuries for the last 18 months, she’s so much happier and we know how to keep her healthy and active.Posted on Google Neil JonesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I sought the opinion of a canine physio after getting an unconvincing diagnosis from the vet and Rochelle was truely excellent! She took the time to listen and understand all the facts before carrying out an assessment on Jack. We were made to feel very valued and my concerns heard with alot of really helpful advise about onward treatment. Unfortunately my dog needs further investigation beyond a physio but i'd have no hesitation in going back to Rochelle should i need the services of a physio and hopefully her expert input will speed the process along.Posted on Google Neil DickinsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Providing a very professional and caring Service.Posted on Google Hannah DTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cant recommend Rochelle enough. Took my dog to see her before, during and after he had surgery on his back leg. She makes sure everyone is comfortable and at ease. My dog Colin absolutely loved going to see her and all.the hard work put in has given Colin the best possible outcome. Thank youPosted on Google Sarah JaneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rochelle recently supported our dog following her second TPLO surgery and we would certainly recommend her. She was lovely with her and she loved having her sessions! We were given exercises to do at home and our dog is doing really well. Rochelle is very caring and knowledgeable.Posted on Google Lauren HTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I used Vault Physio to rehabilitate my very energetic working cocker, after a cruciate ligament injury required an operation and lengthy crate rest. He suffered significant muscle wasting and I was concerned about the risks of his other cruciate going. Rochelle was very reassuring, sensible, calm and excellent at adapting and overcoming any issues, and bringing common sense to the rehab when unforeseen complications occurred (a tendinitis and my dog managing to burrow out of the crate, for instance). She was also very approachable and went out of her way to ensure the best possible outcome. We are now 4 months on and my dog is back to normal which is a great relief. Highly recommended.Posted on Google Fenia DandolouTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rochelle was recommended to me by a colleague and I am so grateful for that. Our senior dog was diagnosed with mild elbow dysplasia by the vet and physio was recommended. Our dog loves seeing Rochelle and has made a huge improvement as we are now at a point where he no longer needs regular pain relief and is comfortable during his walks. I would highly recommend Vault PhysiotherapyPosted on Google Emily CongdonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't speak highly enough of the incredible care my dog has received from Rochelle. From the moment she walked through the door, we were met with warmth, professionalism, and genuine compassion. My dog was treated not just as a patient, but as a cherished companion — and that made all the difference. The progress we've seen has been nothing short of amazing. Each session was thoughtfully tailored to my dog's needs, and the Rochelle took the time to explain everything clearly, making me feel informed and reassured throughout the journey. Rochelles expertise, patience, and gentle approach helped my dog regain strength, mobility, and confidence. We're sadly moving away soon, and we will truly miss Rochelle — she's been such a special part of our dog's recovery, wellbeing and on going maintenance. If you're looking for someone who truly understands and cares for animals, I wholeheartedly recommend her. She's given my dog a new lease on life, and I’m beyond grateful. Luna, Emily, & Danny XxxPosted on Google Roger WoodTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Winnie our labrador has been visiting Rochelle for mild hip dysplasia. She has been a great help with Winnie and has devised exercises specifically for her. She is well informed and great at educating owners. We have enjoyed good results. Winnie loves her. We have been so impressed that my wife is seeing her for a muscular problem and is already seeing great results after one visit after several months of pain.
