Pet
Physical Therapy
Our
pet therapy program consists of various facets that, combined,
provide a total approach to a timely, healthy recovery for your
dog. We incorporate as keystone, hydrotherapy, mixed with massage
and range of motion manipulation while in the (buoyant) pool.
Various
disciplines of massage therapy and accupressure may be separately
administered during these sessions. Canine therapy utlizes similar
to human methods, but canid skeletal knowledge is important
to the proper administration of massage and accupressure therapies.
We
work in consort with your Veterinarian and report on your pet's
progress. Our aim is to return your dog to you as heallthy,
as possible, as prior to his disorders.
The hydro and massage therapies can help to alleviate pain,
bring back to use atrophied muscles, reteaching the limbs to
function as before. At a certain point, the pet owner may, depending
on the dog's condition, elect to continue the hydro sessions
in an active capacity further lowering costs without sacrificing
your pet's care. In fact, your pet may well enjoy his sessions
as playtime. We want to help mend your pet, not strip your pocketbook.
