Post-operative and post-injury rehabilitation is essential for restoring mobility and functionality in pets recovering from surgery or injury. For pets undergoing orthopaedic, muscular, or neurological surgeries, post-operative rehabilitation can begin as early as the day after surgery. Early intervention significantly improves outcomes by reducing acute pain and inflammation and promoting healing. These sessions are shorter and gentler, using treatments like ice therapy, laser therapy, and kinesiotaping to address the critical early recovery phase. These sessions may start in the hospital and continue at home or in the clinic once the pet is discharged.

Post-injury rehabilitation adopts a conservative approach for pets recovering from muscle, joint, or neurological injuries when surgery is not required. Treatment plans are customized based on the injury’s severity and the pet’s specific needs, incorporating a range of therapeutic modalities. Both forms of rehabilitation emphasize gradual improvement, with ongoing physiotherapy recommended beyond the acute phase to rebuild strength, regain functionality, and support long-term recovery over several months. This tailored approach ensures your pet receives the care they need for the best possible quality of life.
