Zero Pain Philosophy - chronic pain meds for vet physios

Join us for a webinar all about chronic pain medication, with Dr Matt Gurney, from the Zero Pain Philosophy. In this lecture we will close some gaps in knowledge on the analgesics used in chronic pain. We will cover second line options for when NSAIDs are not enough and which drugs to choose. In the case studies we use you will see how physiotherapy and pain management work hand in hand to improve comfort.
