Rehabilitation is the use of therapeutic exercises combined with additional modalities to improve the recovery of patients with both acute and chronic conditions. Pets of all ages, sizes and breeds can benefit from rehabilitation. Any pet suffering from chronic pain, arthritis, obesity or muscle weakness can experience an enhanced quality of life as a result of rehabilitation.
Rehabilitation can restore, maintain and promote optimal function and mobility, enhance recovery post-operatively, alleviate pain, improve circulation, coordination and range of motion, and provide confidence and comfort in senior patients.
