Understanding Pet Rehabilitation

Pet rehabilitation, often referred to as veterinary physical therapy, involves a range of therapeutic techniques designed to assist pets in regaining strength, mobility, and comfort. At Sea Legs, we utilize a comprehensive approach that includes therapeutic exercises, laser therapy, and hydrotherapy. These treatments are especially beneficial for pets recovering from surgery, dealing with arthritis or chronic pain, or those needing support for weight management. The goal is to ensure that pets can live active and fulfilling lives, free from discomfort.

Benefits of Pet Rehabilitation

Pet rehabilitation offers numerous benefits that extend beyond physical recovery. One of the primary advantages is pain management. Through techniques such as laser therapy, which uses light to reduce inflammation and promote healing, pets experience significant relief from pain. Hydrotherapy, conducted in our UV-filtered saltwater treadmill, provides a low-impact environment where pets can exercise without placing undue stress on their joints. This is particularly beneficial for pets with arthritis or those recovering from surgery. Additionally, therapeutic exercises are tailored to improve strength, flexibility, and coordination, helping pets regain their independence and mobility.
