QK’s leading Rehabilitation Programs continue to grow and this exciting partnership has only boosted our goals. As Dr. Jennell Appel trains and works with the most qualified and talented QK staff, Sport Vet’s new northern home will allow us to offer you our all-encompassing, comprehensive services designed with Dr. Jennell Appel's vision; a vision where all services will be driven towards the full recovery of your pup, along with those critical ones focused on injury prevention and long-term well-being.

Throughout different times of the year, Dr. J will lead at QK invaluable, limited-participant, comprehensive seminars benefiting athletic & high endurance dogs; as the leading specialist in postoperative rehabilitation, sports medicine, athletic conditioning and injury prevention, she will offer a different perspective on how to view, work with, and care for your dog.

As you know, all our services have been, and will continue to be, entirely tailor-designed to your dog and they all begin with our Virtual Exam.

REHABILITATION PROGRAMS WITH DR. J

Virtual Musculoskeletal Assessment - $200
Includes a comprehensive gait analysis, involving evaluation of the patient at a walk and trot, as well as body position while standing and sitting. Strength, balance and range of motion will be assessed while asking the patient to complete a series of simple land based exercises.

Required for all Rehabilitation Programs

Pre-Op Fitness & Post Op Recovery Programs

Considering initiatives like Pulsed ElectroMagnetic Fields, hydrotherapy aqua treadmill, ATV cardiac reconditioning, BIKO resistance band program and more. The services are focused on reducing inflammation and chronic pain while improving muscle strength and joint range of motion.

* Before enacting your dogs customized program, QK & Sport Vet will need full clearance from your veterinarian.

CWP (Comprehensive Wellness Program)

As goals differ, our CWP will be invaluable whether you’d like your dog to be healthier again, or to recover from an injury, or to efficiently prepare them for an athletic event, or to simply have them be healthier. Depending on your goal, your personalized CWP may focus on improving their muscle mass or endurance, reducing weight, strengthening their core, or improving their flexibility, energy levels, and quality of life.

All rehabilitation pricing is tailor-made for your dog.

PEMF = PULSED ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD

What is PEMF Therapy?

It works by providing pulsing electromagnetic fields to jumpstart and accelerate normal biological cellular reactions. There are no side effects and many times PEMF can be used in place of pharmaceuticals to treat long-term, degenerative conditions. Using PEMF is said to promote cellular exercise, increase oxygenation, and reduce inflammation, and also helps reduce anxiety and pain.

Conditions that can be treated with PEMF therapy

Arthritis and Joint Conditions such as Degenerative Joint Disease, Hip Dysplasia
Increase Range of Motion - Relieve Stiffness, Muscle Soreness & Pain
Accelerate the Healing Time of Sprains, Strains, Fractures and Wounds
Lick granulomas
Hot spots
Ear infections
Post Op Surgery Healing (such as ACL surgery)

Can also be used as a preventative for sport dogs.

What Happens During A PEMF Treatment Session?

PEMF has the ability to pass through fur, skin, bandages, and bone. The dog simply has to lie on the PEMF bed and the PEMF penetrates deep into the joints and muscles. PEMF treatments are great for dogs who do not want to be touched since they simply have to lie on the bed!

“Very simply, cells contain electrically charged particles called ions that govern all cellular processes. When the body is stressed by illness, competition, environmental factors or age, the cellular membrane that conducts the essential ions in to and out of the cell becomes comprised and is unable to efficiently do its job of managing the transport of these ions. When PEMF penetrates the body, a magnetic field in motion is created that immediately impacts these ions and membrane potential to stimulate them into action. The result is an increase in cellular communication and circulation, a decrease in inflammation and pain and a resulting acceleration of healing.” -source: Respond Systems

Most treatments last either 30 or 60 minutes depending on the condition being treated.

WATER TREADMILL

BENEFITS OF AQUATIC THERAPY:

Exercising in water can help reduce fatigue and pressure on joints, soothe aches, and help with balance. It can also improve mobility and flexibility, allowing dogs to experience a better quality of life and well-being, and recover from surgery or an injury quicker.

Water treadmill exercise for small animals in an underwater treadmill is effective for improving strength, muscular endurance, cardio-respiratory endurance, range of motion, agility, and psychological well-being, while minimizing pain. It is also an excellent form of exercise for weight loss and older patients, as less body weight in water reduces the stress on bones and joints.

Many conditions benefit from aquatic therapy, especially those disorders in which an animal is reluctant to use a limb or there is a lack of strength, range of motion, proprioceptive ability, or weight-bearing status. An animal that will not use a limb on land will be more apt to use it in the water.

Our Hudson Aquatic AquaPaws underwater treadmill has variable controls over speed, resistance and depth, which allows for a tailored and progressive exercise plan for every type of breed. Resistance jets can also be turned on or off, depending on the amount of resistance desired, which is useful for muscle strengthening and cardiovascular training as well as reducing swelling and edema.

LASER THERAPY TREATMENT

Whether your pet is rehabilitating from an injury, healing from wounds, or simply aging, at QK we treat a variety of conditions with laser therapy – and, depending on your pet’s condition, relief is often evident within hours of treatment.

As with all our Rehabilitation services, prices will be determined based on your dogs needs. Here are a few services:

SOME OF THE CONDITIONS THAT CAN BE TREATED WITH LASER THERAPY

Skin problems, such as hot spots, lick granulomas, and infections
Ear infections
Pain management for sprains, strains, and stiffness
Arthritis, degenerative joint disease, and hip dysplasia
Fractures and wounds, such as bites, abrasions, and lesions
Post Op Surgery Healing (such as ACL surgery)

As with all our Rehabilitation services, prices will be determined based on your dogs needs. Here are a few services:

What Happens During A Laser Therapy Session?

Laser therapy stimulates the body to heal from within. Non-thermal photons of light are administered to the body for about three to eight minutes and are absorbed by the injured cells, which respond with a higher rate of metabolism. This results in relief from pain, increased circulation, reduced inflammation, and an acceleration of the healing process.

As the laser is administered, the nearly immediate relief of pain allows your pet to relax comfortably and any anxiety your pet initially experiences will dissipate, dogs often fall asleep during the session.
