Underwater Treadmill / Hydrotherapy
We offer the only canine underwater treadmill in Nassau County Long Island! We love using hydrotherapy as it helps pets to recovery faster from surgery and injuries. Its benefits include using the benefits of water. Water resistance helps to increase muscle strength and help improve range of movement. The warmth of the water can relax muscle and ease joint pain. The bouyancy of the water will help support your pet’s weight as they heal from surgery or their injury.
Land Treadmill
The land treadmill can be used for hill walking to help your pet strengthen their muscles and also to increase range of motion. It can also be used to help your pet’s athletic performance and training.
Fit Paws equipment
We have the Fitpaws line of equipment including the cavalleti’s, wobble board, discs and bones. This equipment is used to help your pet regain strength in the injured limb and supporting limbs; and also to develop core strength which benefits the entire body. There are many exercises which can be performed with this equipment to benefit the injured pet as well as to strengthen the canine athlete.
TENS/NMES
We have a TENS unit (transcutatneous electrical nerve stimulation) which helps for pain relief after injuries and surgery. We also have NMES or neuromuscular electrostimulation which can help with muscle atrophy and regaining muscle strength especially in patients with paralized limbs.
Therapeutic Ultrasound
Used for pain relief and to reduce inflammation. This modality helps to warm the tissue, increase circulation and help with healing.
Customized Therapy plan
Our veterinarian will do a complete evaluation of your pet and will come up with a customized physical therapy plan for your pet. This plan will include several modalities and exercises to reduce pain and inflammation, and help to build muscle and improve range of motion. Our goal is to get your pet back into top shape!
