Physical Therapy
& Rehabilitation
Our newly renovated space now houses our Rehabilitation Suite, where we strive to improve mobility, reduce pain, and maintain the quality of life of all of our patients. Our certified technician will work with you to make a personalized plan for your pet’s goals. Depending on session length needed, your pet will utilize multiple modalities to help them improve. This could include:
Rehab For Geriatric Patients:
As your pet gets older, arthritis and other common neurological disorders can reduce mobility, increase pain, and generally make them feel their years. By finding these problems early, we can utilize many different modalities to keep their joints feeling young, healthy, and happy. This in turn increases the years they feel amazing.
Rehab for Injuries/Surgery:
After experiencing knee surgery, back surgery, or after repeated flares of Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD), your pet often needs help regaining full function of joints, muscles, and nerves. Our team can formulate a personalized plan to help them get back on their feet.
Many conditions can benefit from Physical Therapy/Rehabilitation:
Arthritis
Degenerative Myelopathy
