Fitness, Conditioning & Exercise Therapy
Healthy, end stage rehabilitation patients, and geriatric or deconditioned dogs can be conditioned by means of individualized exercise programs to enhance fine motor control, general strength, endurance, and advanced proprioception by means of a wide range of indoor and outdoor tools and exercise equipment all year around. Proper muscle timing and coordination can mean the difference between re-injury and complete recovery.

- Following a Surgery
- Following Spinal Manual Therapy
- Following Trauma
- To build muscle mass and/or core stability (ie. For Show Dogs)
- Following deconditioning due to prolonged illness
- Arthritis
- Following Spinal Cord Injuries
- Pain
- Obesity
- For young animals to help develop body awareness
- For older animals to maintain muscle conditioning and promote enhanced circulation
