Our Mission: To enhance recovery, improve mobility, relieve pain, prevent or limit permanent physical disabilities of our orthopedic and neurologic patients and promote the health, fitness and quality of life for our companion animal friends.
The benefits of physical rehabilitation are well demonstrated in human medicine. We are committed to bringing these same benefits to our companion animal patients when they experience debilitating diseases. We offer many specialized treatments including the following:
- Orthopedic Conditions - cruciate repairs, patellar luxation repairs, hip dysplasia and hip repairs, and fracture repairs
- Neurologic Injuries - disc disease, fibrocartilagenous emboli, degenerative myelopathy, and nerve paralysis
- Muscle Contractions
- Arthritis and Chronic Pain
- Obesity and Weight Management
- Tendinitis
- Wellness - fitness programs, athletic conditioning, and maintenance programs
We are a complimentary medical facility, communicating closely with your primary care veterinarian on your pet’s needs and progress. Our staff assesses your pet and customizes a treatment plan based on age, physical condition, type of injury, and your goals as an owner for your pet’s care. To accomplish our mutal treatment goals we use cutting edge technology and the most current innovations which may include:
- Heated underwater treadmill system with hydrojets
- Therapeutic ultrasound
- Electrical stimulation
- Cold and heat therapies
- Pain control
- Therapeutic massage
- Low-level laser
- Therapeutic equipment and exercise
- Ambulation carts, assistive devices, and orthotics, including fitting and training
We develop customized at-home exercise programs to maximize progress. We design appropriate weight management and diet plans to complement treatments. Our highly skilled treatment team offers an integrative approach to animal rehabilitation.
In addition, our staff includes trained Licensed Veterinary Technicians selected for their compassion and dedication to the well-being of our patients.
Please ask your veterinarian to call us with an initial referral or you may call us directly and we will initiate the referral process with your veterinarian. It is our goal to initiate contact with you and your companion animal within 48 hours of contact. We welcome your interest and are glad to give you a tour of our facility. We will be pleased to answer any questions you might have about treatment of your pet.
