Cranial Cruciate Ligament (CCL) tears in dogs can be a challenging experience for both pets and their owners. In this blog post, we delve into the realm of canine rehabilitation, highlighting the ways it can contribute to the healing process and potentially help dogs avoid surgery.
Canine Rehab Specialists at Happy Paws provide comprehensive and customized care for treating tears in the collateral ligaments. The goal of the rehabilitation process is to increase mobility overall, strengthen the muscles surrounding the injured joint, and improve joint stability through targeted exercises and therapies. Dogs with CCL tears that are still in the early stages or those whose conditions might not require immediate surgical intervention may benefit most from this non-invasive approach.
Pet rehabilitation aims to not only speed up recuperation but also look into ways to keep dogs from needing surgery altogether. Canine Rehab Specialists aim to restore the knee joint's natural movement and function by addressing the underlying problems that contribute to CCL tears, such as muscle weakness or imbalances. This proactive strategy can be especially helpful for dog owners who are looking for alternatives to surgery or for dogs whose particular health issues may make surgery a less desirable option.
In addition to exercises prescribed by your canine rehab therapist, to accelerate the healing. To accelerate the healing process overall, Happy Paws Rehab's specialists use a variety of non-surgical modalities, including, but not limited to, cold laser, manual therapies, such as massage and joint mobilizations, pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, balance training, electrical stimulation, and more. As part of a holistic healing approach, these complementary techniques specifically address the mental and physical health of the pet. With this well-rounded approach to rehabilitation, our professionals strive to improve overall mobility and function so your pet can get back to doing what they do best - playing and having fun! Offering a thorough and customized approach to your pet's recuperation.
When pet owners opt for holistic healing over immediate surgery, their pets can experience the life-changing effects of it. Happy Paws Rehab's approach focuses on the physical and emotional aspects of the pet's overall well-being, with the goal of improving the overall quality of life for pets recovering from CCL tears. This helps with both the short-term healing process and the long-term functionality and health of the joints.
