WHAT IS VETERINARY REHABILITATION?

A Closer Look

Physical therapy in humans is a well-established discipline aimed at reducing pain, increasing strength, flexibility, balance, and neurological function. Veterinary rehabilitation uses the same biomechanical and anatomical principals when applying them to our 4-legged (and 3-legged) companion animals.

  • Weekend Warriors to Olympians
