Our Rehabilitation Team's goal is to restore, maintain, and maximize physical strength and function by addressing the underlying physical impairments. We strive to provide a greater quality of life, giving you more time with your pets—pain-free happiness. 

Rehabilitation Modalities and Treatments

Laser Therapy

Laser therapy uses focused light energy to reduce inflammation and pain while stimulating cell repair. It speeds up healing of wounds, surgical sites, muscle and joint injuries, and supports long-term pain relief in arthritic pets. Corgi Goggles

  • Reduce inflammation and pain
  • Promotes faster tissue and nerve healing
  • Excellent for arthritis, nerve injuries, wounds, muscle spasm, and surgical recovery.

Therapeutic Massage and Manual Therapy

This includes hands-on techniques to relax tight muscles, improve circulation, and restore mobility to stiff joints. Massage helps pets move more freely and feel more comfortable during activity.

  • Reduce inflammation and pain
  • Improves circulation and joint mobility
  • Helps regain range of motion after injury or inactivity

Therapeutic Exercise Program

A customized set of safe movements designed to build strength, improve balance and coordination, and retrain proper gait patterns. Exercises are adapted to each pet’s mobility level and medical condition.

  • Strength, balance, and endurance improvement
  • Restore functional mobility and confidence
  • Essential for neurological recovery, arthritis management, and postsurgical recovery.

Thermotherapy (Heat and Cold Therapy)

We use warm and cold compresses to reduce pain, swelling, and stiffness, helping pets feel more comfortable and relaxed

  • Heat increases circulation, reduces stiffness before activity
  • Cold reduces pain, swelling, and post-surgical inflammation

TENS/EMS (Electrostimulation) Exercise Program

Also known as Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation/Electrical Muscle Stimulation.

TENS safely interrupts pain signals to the brain, helping pets feel relief without additional medication.

EMS gently stimulates weak muscles to maintain strength and prevent atrophy, especially during crate rest or recovery after nerve damage.

  • Pain relief by blocking pain pathways
  • Strengthens weak or atrophied muscles
  • Help maintain muscle tone during restricted activity
  • Support neurological recovery after paralysis or nerve damage

Assisi Loop/PEMF (Target Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy)

  • Non-invasive inflammation and pain reduction
  • Can be used at home to support recovery daily
  • Useful for arthritis, wounds, post-surgical pain, and neurological conditions

Home and In-Clinic Rehabilitation Plans

  • Customized treatment for each pet’s diagnosis and ability
  • Home instructions to ensure continued care and progress

In-House Rehabilitation Visits

  • Ideal for pets who are unable to travel due to fear, mobility issues, or pain
  • Comfort of familiar environment- reduces stress

Nutritional Counseling & Weight Management

  • Weight loss plans to improve mobility
  • Calorie calculation and treat guidance

Rehab

Conditions We Treat and Support

Post Surgical Recovery

  • Orthopedic repairs (CCL, fractures, patella luxation, etc.)
  • Spine surgeries (IVDD)
  • Can be used at home to support recovery daily

Goal: help to control pain, restore function faster, and prevent complications

Non-Surgical Treatment

  • Senior pets
  • Pets with systemic illness

Goal: improves mobility and reduces pain, helps maintain quality of life

Neurological Disorders

  • IVDD, nerve trauma, spinal degeneration

Goal: return to standing and walking, rebuild proprioception, prevent bed sores, muscle wasting, and paw “nackling”

Senior and Geriatric Pets

  • Arthritis, muscle weakness, spasm, and balance problems

Goal: Exercises stimulate the brain and nervous system, mobility support improves confidence, and prevents falls.

Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (Canine Dementia)

  • Therapeutic activities enhance mental stimulation
  • Physical movement improves blood flow to the brain
  • Helps maintain routines, awareness, and engagement with family

Goal: Rehabilitation can significantly slow cognitive decline.

Sports and Working Dogs

  • Performance injuries, soft tissue strains, post-competition soreness
  • Conditioning restores strength and prevents reinjury

Wound Healing and Mobility After Trauma

  • Laser therapy, PEMF, and guided exercise support tissue repair
  • Gradual loading prevents further damage while returning function

Orthopedic and Developmental Conditions

  • Hip or elbow dysplasia, luxations, limb deformities

Goal: Rehab reduces compensatory strain and supports healthy joint use

Paralysis or Partial Paralysis

  • Structured neuro-rehabilitation to retrain the nervous system
  • Strengthens standing ability with the goal of regaining gait
