Pet Canine Rehabilitation in Cape Girardeau, MO
In a series of therapies, our licensed rehabilitation specialists use medically validated methods to help patients restore mobility and pain-free everyday living. To help your pet with daily living, we also teach pet parents how to do exercises at home and use mobility aids.
Pets can benefit from physical therapy for the rest of their lives. Patients who have undergone surgery or sustained an injury are treated using rehabilitation plans, as are those who are not candidates for surgical repair of an injury, are aging and experiencing decreased mobility, have neurological impairments, need strength training for working animals or athletes, and more.
Massage, electrical stimulation, laser therapy, underwater treadmills, orthotics/prosthetics, and other therapies are examples of research-based modalities.
Following surgery, cruciate ligament tears, patella luxation, fractures/breaks, tendon ruptures, osteoarthritis, hip and elbow dysplasia, sports injuries, intervertebral disc disease, wobblers, degenerative myelopathy, vestibular disease, and obesity are among the common conditions that benefit from rehabilitation.
All animals need preventative treatment at some point in their lives. Similar to humans, animals who experience pain compensate with other limbs in an effort to control their discomfort and maintain mobility. If the situation is not addressed, it may end in alternative injury to other limbs. Your pet can preserve and regain movement with the aid of our team of veterinary specialists.
