What Is Animal Rehabilitation?
Animal Rehabilitation is a relatively new to veterinary medicine. Therapy can be used for many types of disease processes as well as weight loss or general fitness and conditioning.
Rehabilitation can help increase speed of recovery from orthopedic surgeries such as CCL tear or FHO.
At Commerce Village Veterinary Hospital, we can develop programs to help keep canine athletes in tip top shape or help the "couch potato pup" lose a few extra pounds.
When designing a plan for pet physical therapy, our goal is to reduce pain and inflammation, while improving function and movement of your pet.
While the cost of therapy may seem daunting, it may reduce the need for other pain management modalities, saving the pet parents money in the long run.
We are also flexible with scheduling so those who worry about finding time for appointments can still be accommodated.
