WELCOME TO OUR REHABILITATION DEPARTMENT
Our Rehabilitation Services Get Pets Back On Their Paws 
There’s a reason why your fellow veterinarians refer their patients to Burlington Emergency & Veterinary Specialists (BEVS) to partner with you for physical rehabilitation. It works! A well-designed rehabilitation program, developed and implemented by credentialed and experienced veterinary professionals, can help in even your most challenging cases. Here at BEVS, improving pets’ quality of life through better mobility and reduced pain is always our goal. And most of our patients have so much fun, they don’t realize they’re receiving treatment!

Our comprehensive rehabilitation program includes a variety of modalities:
  • Acupuncture 
  • Assistive device fittings and adjustments
  • Class IV therapeutic laser 
  • Manual therapy (massage, stretching, range of motion, tissue and/or joint mobilization) 
  • Neuromuscular stimulation (“E-stim”)
  • Orthotics and custom bracing
  • Pain management 
  • Therapeutic exercise programs (in-office and in-home) 
  • Underwater treadmill 
  • Weight management 
  • Wheelchair/cart fitting
