Restoring movement. Renewing possibility.
Rehabilitation is a team effort.
Every successful rehabilitation program begins with collaboration. You bring an intimate knowledge of your animal's personality, behavior, and day-to-day changes. Your veterinarian provides the medical diagnosis and oversees their care. As a Doctor of Physical Therapy and certified rehabilitation practitioner, I evaluate how injury, disease, pain, or weakness has affected movement and function, then develop a rehabilitation plan to help your animal recover as fully as possible. Each member of the team brings something unique, and the best outcomes happen when we work together.
When people undergo surgery or recover from an injury, rehabilitation is considered an essential part of recovery. Animals deserve the same opportunity.
When injury, illness, or age changes the way an animal moves, our role isn't simply to treat a diagnosis—it's to understand the individual standing in front of us. Every decision is guided by careful observation, thoughtful clinical reasoning, and a deep respect for the unique story each animal brings. Together with owners and veterinarians, we help steward animals through recovery, resilience, and a better quality of life.
Wondering if rehabilitation is the right fit?
Not every patient needs rehabilitation—and not every problem should be treated with rehabilitation alone.
If you're unsure where to begin, we'd be happy to discuss your concerns and help determine the best next step.

Animals may not be able to use words to tell us what's bothering them, but they are communicating all the time—through movement, behavior, and function. My role is to listen carefully, think critically, and partner with owners and veterinarians to help each animal move toward the best possible outcome.
