What Is Pet Therapeutic Care?

Therapeutic care for pets addresses physical, emotional, and behavioral needs, improving their overall well-being. Pets, like humans, can experience health issues such as chronic pain, mobility limitations, anxiety, and behavioral challenges. Pet therapeutic care also focuses on preventive health measures to catch and address potential issues early.

Services We Offer

At Family Pet Hospital of Shawnee, we offer therapeutic care services to support pets throughout every stage of their lives.

Pain Management

Our veterinarians specialize in identifying and reducing pain in pets caused by conditions like arthritis, injury, or surgery. We enhance their comfort and improve their quality of life through medication, physical therapy, and alternative treatments.

Rehabilitation Therapy

Our rehabilitation therapy programs restore mobility and strength for pets recovering from surgery or chronic conditions. We design personalized plans to aid their recovery. Rehabilitation therapy may include: therapeutic exercises, stretching techniques, underwater treadmill sessions, balance and coordination exercises, strength training, electrical stimulation therapy, cold and heat therapy, massage therapy, and more!

Acupuncture

As a holistic approach to healing, acupuncture can provide relief for pets experiencing pain, inflammation, and other health issues. The treatment stimulates specific points in their body, promoting natural healing and restoring balance to their system.

Therapeutic Diets

Therapeutic diets support overall health by managing various medical conditions through targeted nutrition. These diets address obesity, diabetes, food allergies, and other health conditions. By including therapeutic diets in treatment plans, we effectively manage pets’ medical conditions and enhance their quality of life.

These diets fuse nutrient levels and ingredients to address specific health needs for optimal nutrition. Our veterinary professionals guide pet owners in providing precise nutrition for their furry companions, helping them thrive despite medical challenges.

Proper nutrition is crucial for maintaining your pet’s health, particularly during chronic condition management or recovery. Our team offers personalized nutritional counseling to ensure your pet receives the nutrients needed to thrive.

Behavioral Therapy

Behavioral therapy is essential for tackling behavioral issues in pets, which may arise from anxiety, trauma, or medical conditions. Our approach includes thoroughly understanding your pet’s personality and circumstances.

We effectively address and modify problematic behaviors by identifying their root causes. The therapy helps ease your pet’s distress and fosters a closer bond between you and your furry companion.
