Instead, we combine several approaches to achieve the best results. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications reduce inflammation and pain, while supplements like glucosamine and omega-3 fatty acids support joint health. We also offer shockwave therapy, which decreases pain and promotes healing without side effects. We may also recommend additional treatment modalities, such as physical therapy, to improve your pet’s mobility and quality of life.
Weight management can significantly improve outcomes for pets with arthritis. A few extra pounds may look cute, but they put additional stress on painful joints. We provide nutritional counseling and diet recommendations to help your pet maintain a healthy weight. Environmental modifications, such as orthopedic beds, ramps, and non-slip flooring, can also improve comfort and safety.
