Restoring our patients' quality of life rehab vets

Physical Rehabilitation restores maximum function
that was lost from injury or disease

 

Mission Statement 
We are veterinarians integrating rehabilitation with traditional medicine, sharing information to improve the quality of animals' lives


The Purpose of the Association
To introduce, educate, develop, and nurture the practice of rehabilitation in veterinary medicine and animal care through the use of integration of various physical therapeutic disciplines. The members of this organization will strive to improve animal physical rehabilitation through clinical research and collaboration within and outside the Association. We will educate the general public and the veterinary profession in the uses and benefits of physical rehabilitation. Working closely with other rehabilitation professionals (physical therapists, massage therapists, chiropractors, etc.), we will adopt a diagnostic approach encompassing every body system and so develop an integrative therapy plan combining the best of veterinary medicine with therapies traditionally described as alternative.
