Rehabilitation
Whether you have a senior pet, or a result of surgery, our pets require therapeutic techniques to recover and stay mobile. At Wheatland, we offer a wide variety of Rehabilitative techniques such as utilizing an underwater treadmill for mobility, dry land exercises, massage, therapeutic ultrasound, electric stimulation, and laser therapy.
These types of treatments can be paired with at-home therapies such as walking, sit-to-stand, weight shifting, and more–all provided to you through how-to videos and demonstrative guides.
For more information on the techniques we provide here at Wheatland, please visit our *NEW* Pet Rehabilitation website.
