To mark our first birthday, we’re celebrating in two small ways:
👉🏻 20% off new bookings with Samantha this December
👉🏻 A simple in-clinic Photo Booth corner for existing clients, with a little giveaway to say thank you

How a human physiotherapy foundation elevates animal rehabilitation.

Rehabilitation is more than exercise. It is assessment, clinical reasoning, and skilled manual techniques shaped by years of hands-on experience.

Animal rehabilitation draws deeply from human physiotherapy research. That foundation guides how we analyse movement, prescribe targeted exercises, and restore balance and confidence in the body.

We’ve seen how physiotherapy transforms human recovery — from post-surgery and spinal cord injuries to helping stroke survivors regain independence. That same drive to rebuild movement and dignity now shapes how we care for dogs and cats.

Because meaningful rehab isn’t about tiring the body. It’s about teaching it to move well again!💪🏻

🐾 Breaking barriers. Empowering movement.

We’re growing, and we’re so happy to welcome Samantha, our new full-time physiotherapist at Nimble Paws 💙

Samantha is a licensed human physiotherapist (BSc Physiotherapy, University of South Australia) with over seven years of experience specialising in neurological and amputee rehabilitation.

Her background in these complex areas deepens how we understand and rebuild movement across every stage of recovery. Like us, she believes movement is never optional — and that empowering owners with understanding is just as important as hands-on care.

With Samantha on board, we continue to strengthen our vision of a physiotherapist-led clinic, one that raises the standard of animal rehabilitation through structure, science, and purpose.

We can’t wait for you to meet her (and her Jindo, Mungoh!) 🐾

The NIMBLE™️ Assessment helps us look at your dog’s body as a whole — not just where the problem shows up.

By understanding how movement, posture, and compensation connect, we can build a rehab plan that’s clearer, more targeted, and more effective.

You can see it here — subtle posture changes that tell us recovery is heading in the right direction.

Why We Tape?

Ever seen dogs with sports tape on their bodies?
It’s not decoration — it’s rehab.

Tape can help with pain relief, swelling management, and guiding or restricting movement during recovery. It’s also used to activate or relax muscles — depending on what the body needs.

In humans, we can cue movement verbally.
In dogs, tape acts as a gentle sensory guide to help create the movement we want to encourage.

It’s never a fix on its own — just one of many tools we use as part of a structured, evidence-based rehab plan.

🩹 Tape with purpose. Movement matters.

These aren’t fashion accessories.

We use tape a lot in human rehab — and it works just as well (if not better) in dogs.

Tape can help with pain relief, swelling management, and guiding or restricting movement — depending on how it’s applied.

The difference?
🧍 Humans can adjust their movement when we cue them verbally.
🐶 Dogs can’t — so tape helps facilitate the movement we want to create.

It’s a sensory cue, not a fix — always part of structured rehab.

Spot the Signs 🔍

Sometimes when a dog stops listening halfway through an exercise — or starts looking around — it’s not stubbornness, it’s fatigue! 🐕
⠀
A question we often get from owners is, “How many reps should I do?” 🤔

We usually provide a guide for sets and reps, but more importantly, we teach owners to read their dog’s cues — to pause or stop when signs of fatigue appear.
⠀
Loss of focus or hesitation can be an early sign that their body is tired, even if they’re still moving well! 🐾
⠀
In physiotherapy, recognising mental drift is just as important as spotting physical fatigue. That’s when we stop and give them a break between sets.
⠀
Would you have thought this was fatigue? 👀

Tired ≠ Happy.

It’s common to think more exercise will help a restless dog settle — but when the body isn’t moving well, fatigue can cause more strain than relief.

Dogs that overexert on stiff or sore joints often compensate,
and what looks fine after play may turn into stiffness or limping the next day.

At Nimble Paws, we focus on how your dog moves — because healthy movement builds strength, balance, and recovery.

A happy dog isn’t the most tired one. It’s the one that moves freely and feels good! 🐕

⚖️ Beginner Friendly Exercise #3: Balance & Coordination

Do you know that balance is one of the key pillars of exercise?

For dogs, balance work helps keep their movement stable, improves coordination, and builds body awareness. 🐾
✔️ Easy: Stand with front paws on one cushion and back paws on another — start with 15s holds
✔️ Progress: Build up gradually, aiming for up to 60s. Add head turns or alternate hand shakes for extra challenge.

🗓️ Do 3–5 sets, daily.

⚠️ PSA: Stop if your dog looks tired or frustrated.

Osteopathy meets Physiotherapy at Nimble Paws 🐾

We’re excited to share that osteopathic techniques are now being integrated into our physiotherapy sessions.

I recently completed a Masterclass in Advanced Osteopathic Techniques 🇦🇺 as part of my ongoing Canine Osteopathy Diploma — another step in deepening how we support dogs (and cats) at Nimble Paws.

I’ve always believed in the power of hands-on therapy and movement. By blending osteopathic techniques with exercise-based physiotherapy, we’re expanding our rehab toolbox to better tailor treatment to each dog’s needs.

I’ll be gradually integrating these techniques into my sessions as part of this broader clinic evolution — and I’m excited for what’s ahead as our team grows 🌿

Curious how osteopathy can support your dog’s rehab journey? Drop me a DM or comment below 🐾

🐕‍🦺 Beginner Friendly Exercise #2: Dog Push-ups!

Just like we build upper body strength with push-ups, dogs can work theirs with the same exercise.
✔️ Easy: Elevated push-ups with front paws on a step (the higher the step, the easier it is)
✔️ Progress: Push-ups with front paws on the ground

🗓️ Aim for 6–8 reps, 3 sets, every other day.

⚠️ PSA: Keep reps slow and controlled.

Here’s another at-home exercise you and your dog can try while the clinic is on break.

✔️ Progress: Elevated sit-to-stands with front paws on a step or stack of books (higher = harder)

🗓️ Aim for 6–8 reps, 3 sets, every other day.

⚠️ PSA: Use a yoga mat or carpet for a safe, non-slip surface.

✔️ Yoga mat / coasters → provide safe, non-slip footing
✔️ Cushions / towels → gently challenge balance and stability

Simple tools. Big impact! Exercise does not need to be complicated 🐾

⚖️ Clinic tools are for specific rehab needs — everyday items are enough for simple home exercises.

Ever wondered what a physiotherapist looks for when a dog walks into the clinic?

Here’s a sneak peek into a physio’s eyes — the simple steps we use to spot compensation, a dog’s way of showing pain:
1️⃣ Check their stand — leaning forward or loading more weight on one side?
2️⃣ Watch the hips — swaying more, or one side dropping lower?
3️⃣ Observe push-off — is one back leg driving less or not extending fully?
4️⃣ Check the stride — are the steps shorter, uneven, or out of rhythm?

These aren’t quirks. Reduced push-off, swaying hips, and shorter steps are signs of pain — what we call compensation.

👉 Save this guide to spot these changes early in your own dog.

Ever limped after hurting your ankle… and then your back started aching? 🤔

That’s because of compensation — your body finds a workaround, but it spreads strain to other areas. Guess what? Dogs do the same! They can’t say it hurts, but their movement changes show it: reduced push-off, swaying hips, or shorter steps.

Compensation happens in both humans and dogs — and it’s their way of adapting to their pain.

Meet Schayenne 👋

She came in with a luxating patella and a super hunched back — sitting, standing, even during exercise. The hunch was her way of compensating for knee pain, and the pain made her very guarded — even snapping when touched.

After a few sessions, her back is straighter, and she’s noticeably calmer and more at ease. What made the real difference? Structured rehab sessions plus her owner’s consistent work at home!💪🏻

Physiotherapy isn’t just about posture. It’s about helping dogs feel safe, supported, and confident in their bodies again! 🐕

👉 DM us if you’re wondering whether physio can help your dog.

She came in with a luxating patella and a super hunched back — sitting, standing, even during exercise. The hunch was her way of compensating for knee pain, and the pain made her very guarded — even snapping when touched.

After a few sessions, her back is straighter, and she’s noticeably calmer and more at ease. What made the real difference? Structured rehab sessions plus her owner’s consistent work at home!💪🏻

Physiotherapy isn’t just about posture. It’s about helping dogs feel safe, supported, and confident in their bodies again! 🐕

👉 DM us if you’re wondering whether physio can help your dog.

⁠
Splooting, swaybacks, east-west paws… owners often think these postures are “just normal.” But your dog’s posture and movement are windows into how their body is coping.
⁠
What looks cute or quirky can actually be an early clue of hip laxity, hind limb pain, or joint instability.
⁠
🐾 Posture and movement are the body’s first clues — spotting them early helps your dog stay comfortable, strong, and moving well.

Progress isn’t about making things harder — it’s about finding the right challenge. 🐾

Buddy showed us that when the exercise setup is too advanced, form breaks down. But with the right adjustment, he sat better and truly progressed.

🔍 Spot the signs: struggle ≠ progress.
💬 DM us ‘SPOT’ if you’ve noticed your dog struggling with home exercises.

Reps can lie. Movement doesn’t.
Numbers might look like progress — but if form breaks down, it’s not real strength.

We see it all the time:
👀 Owners who only count reps.
👀 Owners who focus on form — but forget exercise prescription (right amount, right pace, right progression).
👀 And some who do neither.

Butter had hip surgery a few months back. Poor stability made him sit with his hip turned in. With sports tape and the right equipment, we guided him to sit square — so his muscles fired correctly and built real strength.

At Nimble Paws, we focus on quality reps within proper prescription. That’s how we prevent injury, build lasting strength, and help dogs truly move better.

Spot the Signs 🔍

Last time, we showed how a dachshund compensated during a balance exercise.
This time, it’s another dog — but the story’s the same: when the challenge increases, the body finds a way.

First set: controlled movement into a sit, holds good form.
Final set: ‘drops’ into a sit with poor control, shifting weight to her stronger leg.

Dogs don’t always show tiredness by lying down. More often, it shows up in their form.
And when those compensations repeat, they can turn into habits — or even injuries.

That’s why in physiotherapy, we don’t just watch for how many reps are done, but how each one is performed.

👀 Try it yourself - start spotting signs of fatigue when you are doing exercises with your dog! Quality is always better than quantity! 💪🏻

More isn’t always better when it comes to your dog’s exercise.

🐾 Poor form: the wrong areas take over — leading to stress, strain, and bad habits.
🐾 Good form: the right muscles work in balance — building safe strength and progress.

That’s why in physiotherapy, we don’t just count reps. We look at how each one is performed.

💡 Save this as a reminder for your next walk or training session: quality > quantity.

Just because a dog can do an exercise doesn’t mean she’s doing it properly.

Here, Martha lifts her left hind paw whenever she was asked for a right paw shake. That means she’s not shifting weight towards her left hind leg — a small compensation that can point to weakness in the diagonal chain.

These subtle signs matter, especially in breeds with a higher risk of back and joint issues — dachshunds, Frenchies, pugs, and corgis. They remind us it’s not about ticking off an exercise — it’s about noticing how the body moves, and what those details reveal.

Form is more important than the exercise itself.

‘We brought our Sheltie, Kaya, to see Joey for physiotherapy after noticing an imbalance in her legs, especially her weaker right side. Over just 6 sessions, Kaya showed incredible improvement—not just physically but also in confidence and coordination!

Joey is not only highly knowledgeable, but also incredibly patient and supportive. Each week, she gave us a clear assignment to work on and tracked Kaya’s progress closely. She responded promptly to every message we sent, whether it was photos, videos, or updates on Kaya’s movement—making us feel fully supported throughout the process.

We’re so thankful for her guidance and care. Kaya is moving more evenly now, and we’ve learned so much about how to keep her strong and safe for the long term. Highly recommend Joey to any pet parent looking for thoughtful, professional, and compassionate physiotherapy care!’ - Xiao Xue, Kaya’s owner

Five days of low activity… and full blast on weekends = higher risk of injuries.

When dogs go from a week of low movement straight into high-intensity play, hikes, or sport, their joints, muscles, and tendons aren’t prepared for the sudden load.
That’s when strains, sprains, and flare-ups happen! 🩼

A healthier approach?
✅ Consistent exercise spread through the week
✅ Warm-ups before high-impact play
✅ Gradual build-up instead of a weekend blowout

Because healthy dogs have more good days — and more weekends you can enjoy together!

Nimble Paws turns 1 — and we’re giving back.

To mark our birthday, we’re sponsoring a 6-session physiotherapy package for one rescue dog or cat currently in a shelter or foster home.

They might be struggling with pain, injury, or weakness —
but with the right care, there’s still so much possibility.

Esther was a big part of our first year —
a shelter dog with degenerative myelopathy.
Physio gave her comfort and dignity in her final months.
She’s no longer with us, but her journey reminded us why this work matters.

Now, we’re looking to help the next one.

Know a dog or cat who might benefit?
1️⃣ Follow @nimblepawsphysio
2️⃣ Submit the form via the link in bio
📅 Nominations close 8 August, 8PM
📣 Winner announced by 11 August

Don’t know a rescue animal personally?
You can still help by sharing this post or tagging a shelter, fosterer, or rescuer who might.

Let’s give movement back to someone who truly deserves it. 💛

One year of Nimble Paws.

There was no clinic back then — just a mat on the floor, some treat bags, and dogs coming to my home.
I was still working 36-hour shifts in human physio.
Outside of that, I was seeing pets, building a website, writing handouts, creating workshops — learning how to do it all from scratch.

No investors, no third parties.
Not because I wanted to do everything myself — but because I wanted the vision to stay clear. Not rushed. Not shaped by trends or numbers. Just focused on doing right by the dogs in front of me.

From the start, Nimble Paws has been built on two things:
✨ Helping owners feel confident in supporting their pets
✨ Raising the standard of rehab for animals in Singapore
That’s shaped how we work in the clinic — and beyond it too.

We’ve held biweekly workshops, ran one at a vet open house, spoke at a dog’s birthday about preventive care — and even volunteered to support a shelter dog through rehab when rest wasn’t enough.

Somewhere along the way, the NIMBLE™️ Assessment started to take shape — a way to make sure we weren’t guessing. That officially launches today.

This month, I’ve stepped back from my human physio work — now just half a day a week — to give Nimble Paws the space it needs.

I’m grateful to finally have the time to explore new ideas, deepen the work I already love, and keep showing up for the dogs who need support, and the owners who trust us to help.

There’s still so much to learn — but I’m glad to be doing it here.

Thanks to everyone who’s been part of this journey so far.

Over the past two months, we’ve been running the NIMBLE™️ Assessment quietly in the background. And the results have shaped the way we assess every new case.

In August, NIMBLE™️ will launch officially — and with it, our updated consultation rate.

But our core stays the same:
✅ We assess before we treat
✅ We prioritise clarity over quick fixes
✅ We treat every dog like a whole patient, not a symptom

📩 DM “NIMBLE” to book your assessment at the current rate — ends on 31st July 2025.

Over the past 2 months, we quietly soft-launched the NIMBLE™ Assessment — a structured, full-body method adapted from human physio.

Here’s what we found:
– Severe forelimb paralysis misdiagnosed as arthritis
– A torn ankle ligament + weak ankle and paw muscles missed in early checks
– Orthostatic tremors mistaken for pain from hip issues

These aren’t rare exceptions.
They’re real dogs — assessed using a system built to uncover what others miss.

At Nimble Paws, we don’t guess.
We assess.

NIMBLE™ has been running quietly in the background.
But in August, we go live — with a revised consultation rate to match the depth of this assessment.

These are the last couple of days to secure it at the current rate before the full launch.

Most dogs go from complete rest to full speed — launching straight into play, stairs, or a run without any build-up.
It may look normal, but their joints and muscles aren’t always ready for that sudden load.

Just like us, their bodies need time to adjust.

Warming up helps increase muscle temperature, which improves contraction, coordination, and movement control.
In simpler terms — the body moves better when it’s primed, not cold.

A short warm-up can reduce the risk of injury, improve movement quality, and make activity safer — especially for older dogs, those in recovery, or dogs about to do higher-impact activities like fetch or agility.

And it doesn’t have to be complicated.
1–2 minutes of slow, intentional movement is often enough.
The goal? Gently move the joints through the range they’ll be using — and activate the muscles needed for the task ahead.

🐾 Want a simple warm-up to try at home?
DM “FLOW” and we’ll send you our free Spinal Flow guide — a calm, structured sequence that gently prepares your dog’s body to move well.

“Movement is Wellness” 🐾

That was the heart of our recent session at Garden of Tails — an event organised by @chaineddogawareness to raise awareness and support for rescues.

We were invited to share about Canine Wellness, and introduced our ✨ Spine Mobility Prep & Flow Sequence ✨— a gentle, effective way to help dogs stay limber, coordinated, and confident in movement.

These techniques may look small, but they lay the groundwork for smoother recovery and better mobility — especially in dogs who are aging, recovering from injury, or just starting to show stiffness.

🙏 Thank you to everyone who joined us and supported the cause. Your presence made a difference.

💬 Want the guide we shared?
Follow us and DM ‘FLOW’ to receive it.

🐶 Curious to explore more?
We run monthly stretch & massage workshops to help you support your dog’s movement from home. Keep an eye out or DM us to join the next one.

What gets missed without structure?

Pain that only shows during movement.
Subtle nerve signs.
Early muscle wasting.
Minor joint instability.
The compensations that dogs quietly live with.

These signs often need a movement-focused lens to uncover — and they rarely show up if we’re only looking at one joint or one symptom at a time.

That’s why every dog at Nimble Paws starts with a structured, full-body NIMBLE™ Assessment.
We don’t guess. We assess.
Clearly, calmly, and completely.

🌀 For owners who want to understand what’s really going on — and what to do next.

📍We’re fully booked for July.
August NIMBLE™ Assessments now open — DM to book.

We don’t need to be loud.
We don’t follow trends or offer generic treatments just to keep up.

At Nimble Paws, we take a different approach:
We assess before we treat.
We educate before we advise.
We listen to what your dog is already telling us.

This isn’t fast work — it’s focused work.
And it’s built for owners who want to understand, participate, and move with intention.

If this speaks to you — welcome.
You’re exactly who we’re here for.
To those who’ve already booked in — thank you for seeing the value in this kind of care.
Our July assessments are now fully booked.
We’ll see the rest of you in August! 🐾

One Minute with Nimble Paws #5 — Should we wait? Should we give up?
That’s a question many owners ask when their dog struggles with a basic task — like sitting, standing or even walking.

But in rehab, doing nothing often means falling further behind.

At Nimble Paws, we don’t push dogs to do more than they can.
We break the task down.
We adapt the movement.
We help them rebuild strength, understanding, and confidence — one small step at a time.

Because even if your dog can’t do the full movement now…
That doesn’t mean they can’t get there.

👉 DM “BUILD” if your dog is struggling with everyday movement — we can help you find a safe way to start.

🐾 Did you know early rehab can shape your dog’s long-term mobility?

Subtle signs like weakness, hesitation on stairs, or shifting weight often show up long before any obvious limping — but they’re easy to dismiss as “just getting older.”

Starting rehab early can:
✅ Preserve muscle strength and coordination
✅ Prevent compensations that lead to new injuries
✅ Lower the risk of chronic pain and joint damage

At Nimble Paws, we use a structured, holistic approach.
We’re trained to spot what others might miss — then build personalised plans that support your dog’s movement, comfort, and confidence over time.

Early intervention isn’t just about faster recovery.
It can help your dog stay independent for longer.

👉 DM “EARLY” to find out how early rehab can help your dog move better, for longer.

Weak legs?
🚨News flash: It’s not always normal ageing.

We often hear from owners whose senior dogs are already having significant difficulty getting up or walking. While rehabilitation can still offer comfort and support at this stage, progress may be slower and more limited compared to when early signs of weakness are addressed sooner.

Many dogs start to show subtle weakness in their hind legs as they get older, but this isn’t just “slowing down.” Weak legs are often an early sign of pain, muscle loss, or joint issues.

💎 Good news: With the right rehab plan, we can work on these issues early and help your dog stay stronger for longer.

In our sessions, we start with simple, safe exercises to build strength and stability. As dogs improve, we may progress to controlled pivots like the one shown here. Pivots help develop hip stability, balance, and confidence, while also allowing us to spot subtle signs of discomfort early.

✨ Early action matters because it can:
✔️Slow or prevent muscle weakness
✔️ Reduce pain before it becomes severe
✔️ Keep your dog active, strong, and happy longer

Don’t wait for obvious signs — early intervention can mean the difference between a dog that struggles and one that thrives.

🐾 “Wah… animals also need physio?”
You’d be surprised how many pets struggle with issues just like ours — ankle sprains, muscle strains, even spinal injuries. But unlike us, they can’t say “ouch” or always show when they’re in pain.

That’s where physiotherapy comes in.
And yes, this used to be my job for humans.
Now? I help dogs move better, live fuller, and hurt less.

That’s why a structured physio assessment is key to catching what they can’t tell us — and helping them move comfortably again.

💬 Got a pet that’s “just slowing down”? DM “WHY” and let’s find out what’s really going on.

🐾 Ever wonder why a pet physio assessment takes more than just a quick check?

Humans can tell us what hurts — but our pets can’t point and say “it’s my shoulder!” That’s why we do a full head-to-tail, movement-to-muscle investigation to catch the subtle signs their bodies show us.

Our structured assessment, inspired by human physiotherapy standards, ensures we don’t miss what your pet can’t say.

📩 Curious what your pet might be hiding? DM ‘NIMBLE’ to start your journey to better mobility today!
