PROVIDING REHABILITATION AND WELLNESS SERVICES FOR YOUR PETS

Animal rehabilitation is the use of human physical therapy assessment and treatment techniques with an animal patient. The goal of rehabilitation is to improve the quality of life of the patient recovering from orthopedic and neurological conditions by decreasing and managing pain and discomfort, restoring mobility, range of motion and movement, and preventing complications and further injury.

OUR SERVICES
Pets will be assessed by a physiotherapist registered with the College of Physiotherapists of Ontario that has specialized training in animal rehabilitation.
