The National Association of Veterinary Physiotherapists, whose origins date back to 1985, has enlisted many successful animal physiotherapists and provides the highest level of assistance to veterinary surgeons throughout the UK and abroad. NAVP is recognised by many leading insurance companies.

The aims of the Association are to provide a high level of care in assisting the veterinary profession in the rehabilitation of injured animals and also providing means of keeping athletic animals at their peak. The Association is committed to the continual development of skills and knowledge of its therapists whilst providing clients and their animals with the best level of care.

Under the 1966 Veterinary Act, it is a requirement of law, that animal physiotherapists, chiropractors and osteopaths only work under veterinary referral. All NAVP members abide by this law and correct insurance is a condition of membership.
