Rehabilitation & Pain Management for Pets

Canine Rehabilitation Treatment

We’ll have your dog feeling like a pup again with the help of our canine rehabilitation and pain management program. Physical rehabilitation provides recovery of function by reducing the complications caused by problems like injury, surgery, neurological dysfunction, tendinitis, fractures, arthritis and obesity. Our physical therapy for canines has improved the health and comfort of many owners’ pets just like the human population has benefited from PT treatments. These same rehabilitation techniques now benefit dogs in many ways.

Dr. Thompson, our Certified Canine Rehabilitation Therapist (CCRT) will perform an initial exam and determine a plan that is customized to your pet’s needs. We look forward to caring for your loved one!
