Learn how complementary therapies can be used as a holistic approach to help dogs with canine cruciate ligament disease
Research mentioned in this post includes:
American Veterinary Medical Association Journal - “After TPLO in CCL-deficient dogs, early physiotherapy intervention should be considered as part of the postoperative management to prevent muscle atrophy, build muscle mass and strength, and increase stifle joint flexion and extension ROMs.” https://avmajournals.avma.org/view/journals/ajvr/67/3/ajvr.67.3.529.xml
“In conclusion, the cases we have described, as well as the information mentioned above from the available literature, confirm the effectiveness and thus the need for physiotherapeutic treatment of dogs after the break of CCL” Słodki, S., Bogucka, J., (2021).

“Conclusions favour of the use of hydrotherapy as a beneficial, enjoyable and cost-effective rehabilitation tool, and as an excellent vehicle during the transition between the weak, post-operative and the fully rehabilitated state” Sairéad Wild (2017) Canine cranial cruciate ligament damage and the use of hydrotherapy as a rehabilitation tool, Veterinary Nursing Journal, 32:8, 228-234, DOI: 10.1080/17415349.2017.1322476 https://www.tandfonline.com/action/showCitFormats?doi=10.1080/17415349.2017.1322476
