Understanding Pet Functional Exercise
Pet functional exercises encompass a wide range of activities that are specifically designed to enhance your pet’s range of motion, flexibility, strength, and balance. These exercises are tailored to meet the individual needs of each pet and are an integral part of their treatment plan. From using a balance disk to practicing with a yoga peanut ball, our rehabilitation therapists guide your pet through exercises that promote optimal function and mobility.
Key Benefits of Pet Functional Exercise
- Improved Range of Motion: Functional exercises help your pet achieve greater flexibility and range of motion in their joints, allowing for more natural and comfortable movement.
- Increased Strength: By engaging in targeted exercises, your pet can build muscle strength, which is essential for supporting joints and preventing injuries.
- Enhanced Balance and Coordination: Functional exercises challenge your pet’s balance and coordination, helping them develop better proprioception and stability.
