Conditions We Treat

We couldn’t have asked for a better therapist if we tried. Erica is professional, knowledgeable and kind and I always felt so comfortable with my pup in her care.”

  • Every patient will be seen for an initial appointment with Dr. Erica Kirsch. Prior to your appointment Dr. Kirsch will review your pet’s medical history. This visit is typically 1.5 hours long and will include a thorough discussion about your pet’s mobility, history, and your concerns. We will then go through a complete musculoskeletal, soft tissue, and neurological exam to determine what areas we need to work on. We go over all the findings and come up with a plan that is individualized to your pet. We will also start treatments as time allows.

  • Follow up appointments are typically 1 hour and include all the treatments your dog might need such as modalities, hands on treatments, or exercise. These appointments are performed by our lead therapist, Shayna. As your pet progresses, our focus for each appointment may change. Dr. Erica and Shayna will round each week on cases to make sure your pet is progressing as expected.

  • This is dependent on the type of surgery and the preference of your surgeon. You can reach out to us and we can communicate with your surgeon to come up with a rehab plan.

  • The underwater treadmill is just a tool for strengthening, though it is not specific to different muscle groups. Most dogs need targeted strengthening to specific muscle groups which is better accomplished through land based exercises. Most dogs don’t need the underwater treadmill to effectively gain strength and mobility.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We do not provide veterinary care. Our team focuses solely on rehabilitation. For medical concerns outside of rehabilitation we will refer back to your veterinarian.

  • In order to be seen by our team, we do require a referral from your veterinarian stating that your pet is safe to participate in rehab. Don’t worry though, we will work directly with your vet to get this referral before your first appointment.

  • Yes and yes! We definitely can provide care to other small pets. We find creative ways to work with their unique needs in the comfort of your own home. Contact us to learn more.

  • We believe in taking a low stress approach to care for your pet. We will never force your pet to lay down or restain them. Our sessions are long so that we can take the time to get to know your pet and build trust. We utilize treats to make everything a positive experience. For pets who are more fearful, we don’t always get a full exam on the first visit and that’s okay. We can slowly get more examination as your pet becomes more comfortable. If needed we can work with your veterinarian to get medication to help with your pet’s anxiety. Usually patients quickly start to love their therapy appointments!
