It is possible to schedule an appointment without a referral.  Just understand that we are not a general practice and only offer these specialty services.  We will request that you bring records or allow us to contact your veterinarian so we will have a full history of any other conditions or treatments your pet may be receiving.

The initial consultation includes a full holistic or rehabilitation exam/consultation and first treatment as well as a treatment plan and expectations for therapy.

Acupuncture and chiropractic appointments frequently have clients present during exam and treatment.  The rehabilitation evaluation is a good place for clients to be present.  We do prefer that you drop off for treatments as most pets do better without the distraction of the owners present.  Many pets also need a break between activities so it is not uncommon to start with the underwater treadmill then give them a break prior to additional exercises or treatments but each case is handled individually.  We do like to demonstrate home exercises with our clients present. We also send pictures and videos of your pet doing the various exercises.

Each patient is different depending on why they are undergoing rehabilitation therapy.  Many are looking at 10-20 sessions but this will be discussed with you at the time of your pet’s initial evaluation and throughout the treatment program.

No! We treat both feline and canine patients. Cats generally respond well to a variety of rehabilitation modalities, including acupuncture and manual therapy.

We are open Monday-Friday from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm

Currently the best way to schedule an appointment for your pet is to call our office directly at (830) 632-6974.

With piezowave vet most treatments are very well tolerated by small animals and do not require sedation.  If the treatment requires high energy to stimulate bone healing and the patient is sensitive we may recommend a sedative.
