Underwater Treadmill
Warm water can ease pain and aid in flexibility, facilitating a better range of motion and deeper stretching
. The warmth of the water can also increase blood flow which helps to speed up recovery.
Pets enjoy many advantages from underwater treadmills, also referred to as hydro-treadmills. The buoyant properties of water making it a great, low-impact exercise by reducing the weight put on the bones and joints. This allows us to increase a pet’s endurance and strength without adding excess stress.
No fear, if your pet is afraid of water. We take time to condition your pet to water therapy to ensure they are comfortable and at ease. This may mean therapy sessions and overall goals can take a little longer.
As your pet’s strength training changes, our treadmill has other features to accommodate, providing more resistance to challenge your pet in meeting their rehabilitation or therapy goals. +

Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy is a noninvasive, low dose therapeutic laser, safe for both cats and dogs. Laser therapy
can be used to manage and treat several types of ailments and injuries.
(Please note that as a precaution, this form of therapy is not used for pregnant or nursing animals.)
Cold laser therapy works by increasing cellular function, increasing absorption of nutrients, and helping to reproduce new cells- speeding up recovery and reducing pain and inflammation from surgery injury or disease. The reduction of inflammation and increased circulation can also relieve pain associated with arthritis.
Laser therapy can be used as a substitute or in conjunction with medication for treating chronic pain, neurological disorders, surgical recovery and more. Depending on your pet’s pain management needs, we may combine water therapy and laser therapy. +
