Fisio4Vet

What Fisio4Vet does

Fisio4Vet is a privately held veterinary physiotherapy and rehabilitation clinic headquartered in Bovisio Masciago, Monza e Brianza province, Italy, approximately 15 minutes from Milan. Founded in 2011 as the first dedicated sports veterinary physiotherapy clinic in Lombardy, the company operates from a 350 sqm ground-floor facility equipped with a heated 7m x 3m pool with counter-current swimming, two underwater treadmills, a 60 sqm proprioceptive gym, a holistic treatment room, and boarding kennels. Service offerings span rehabilitation physiotherapy (manual and instrumental therapy, kinesitherapy), aquatic therapy (pool swimming and underwater treadmill), advanced modalities (laser, diathermy, electrostimulation, magnetotherapy, O.P.A.F. high-frequency pressure waves, ozone therapy), complementary medicine (acupuncture, osteopathy, homotoxicology), sports medicine for athletic and working dogs, specialized feline physiotherapy, custom orthotics and prosthetics, veterinary nutrition, and home-visit care.

The business operates as a professional services practice on a referral-driven, sales-led GTM model. Revenue is generated per-treatment from pet owners (primarily dogs and cats) with cases ranging from post-surgical recovery and chronic orthopedic/neurological conditions to performance conditioning for athletic dogs. Customer acquisition runs through a veterinary referral network, supplemented by organic social presence on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and the company blog. A secondary 'collaboration' service point is operated at the Arcadia Clinic in Bareggio west of Milan, with no disclosed revenue, pricing, or session volume. The company is owned and operated by its founding Medical Director, Dr. Laura Gerli, supported by two additional veterinarians, four veterinary technicians, and a front-office manager — eight people in total — and operates under its own Italian P.IVA with no external investment, parent company, or public listing.
