Veterinary rehabilitation uses physical therapies to improve a pet's mobility and reduce pain. Many acute and chronic conditions affecting movement can benefit from rehabilitation. Rehabilitation therapy can cause significant harm to a patient if done by someone with inappropriate education and training, or incomplete knowledge of a pet's full medical history. Speak to your veterinary healthcare team to help you evaluate the suitability of specific therapy for your pet.
