Does My Dog Need Rehab?

 

TESTED ON HUMANS FIRST:

Yes! There is such a thing as physical therapy for dogs! I’m a Physical Therapist with specialized training on how to apply physical therapy principles to help your pet!

PTs are in a prime position to be able to help your dog with their mobility concerns because we do it for people, so why not apply those same tried and true techniques to your furry best friend! This services HAS been tested on people first!

And I’ll let you in on a little secret…animals get better FASTER than people do!

That’s why they are so amazing and fun to help. If we apply the right type and amount of techniques, pets DO get better.

Just like PTs help humans, PTs trained in dog rehabilitation use:

• Massage to ease achy muscles
• Specialized stretching techniques to improve flexibility
• Progressive resistance exercises to increase strength
• Neurodevelopmental sequencing to improve the communication between muscles and spinal cord
• Joint mobilizations to improve joint range of motion
• And many other specialized techniques to help your pet

And that stuff is great and all, but what exactly does that mean for your pup?

It means giving your dog the best chance at a full recovery if he or she has injured themselves such as tearing a CCL (compared to ACL in humans) or if she has had any type of muscle/tendon/bone surgery.

It means getting your dog walking again if they have become paralyzed from a spine problem (IVDD).

And most importantly it means giving you more TIME with your pet, because what can be better than that? Ultimately, we seek treatments for our loved ones to help them live their best lives, keep them comfortable and active, as well as give us more TIME with them. Why not do the same for our beloved fur-babies!

Simply put, animal physical therapy and rehabilitation acts as a guide to help you help your pet thrive while staying happy, healthy, and mobile.

At In Pawsuit Rehab, we help pets with mobility problems stay happy, healthy, and mobile by providing rehabilitation from the comfort of your home.
