Pet Rehabilitation at HEAL

What is Pet Rehabilitation?

Rehabilitation for pets is very similar to human physical therapy. Services are designed to help pets regain function and mobility after an injury or surgery. Healing support is provided via modalities such as underwater and / or land treadmill exercises, physical exercise administered with the use of physio-balls, peanuts, obstacle courses, ramps and stairs, electrical stimulation to help with pain control and neurological function, LASER therapy to stimulate healing within joints and muscle groups, therapeutic ultrasound to help stimulate tissue healing and improve pliability of muscles, and manual therapy to assist in lengthening and function of muscles.

Rehabilitative services can also help pets with multi-joint arthritis maintain mobility and can help provide additional pain control.
