I see all dogs and cats for acupuncture and rehabilitation! My practice focus is pain management for senior pets with arthritis, quality of life and mobility concerns as well as patients with neurologic conditions to help regain functional mobility.
Rehabilitation ServicesRehabilitation therapy uses many of the same techniques that human physical therapists use, adapted for animals! Rehabilitation therapy provides our pets with pain relief and improved recovery from orthopedic or neurologic surgery as well as weight loss, pain management and management of arthritis and neurologic conditions.
These treatments include photobiomodulation (previously called cold laser), manual therapy, medical massage, Pulsed Eletromagnetic Field therapy, neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and Therapeutic Exercises |
Veterinary Medical AcupunctureAcupuncture is the stimulation of points on the body through the insertion of very thin needles into tissues and muscles. These needles influence blood and lymph flow, relieve myofascial tension and trigger points, modulate nerve signals in the spinal cord, and release anti-pain and anti-inflammatory molecules from the brain, spinal cord and local tissues.
In conjunction with traditional therapy, acupuncture improves pain management, relieves painful muscle trigger points and stimulates nerve healing and improved function. Most pets tolerate acupuncture well and relax during their treatment! |
Therapeutic ExerciseAlthough we cannot ask an animal to do bicep curls, there are many exercises that our pets can do using modified equipment (balance balls, steps, and cavaletti rails to name a few).
These exercises help increase muscle strength, body awareness, balance and core strength which are very important for pets with early arthritis, senior pets with mobility problems, as well as patients recovering from surgery and neurologic injury. |
