Services & Pricing:
Initial Evaluation - $180
This is the first appointment for all new patients. After reviewing all of your dog's medical records and the information you filled out in the new patient questionnaire, this appointment will be scheduled in your home for approximately 90 minutes. At this appointment, I will perform a complete musculoskeletal and neurologic evaluation including gait and functional assessments, muscle mass and joint range of motion measurements, strength testing, muscle flexibility testing, neurologic reflexes, and pain assessment. We will then discuss the best options for improving your dog's mobility, decreasing pain, and getting them back to living their best life! If further diagnostics are needed, I may refer you back to your primary veterinarian or a specialist for this testing. If time allows, your pet may receive their first laser and PEMF treatment included in this appointment. Following the appointment, a written report of all findings and treatment recommendations will be emailed to you as well as your primary veterinarian. You will also be provided with a short easy exercise program to work on at home.
Rehabilitation Session - $120
This treatment session is scheduled for 45-60 minutes in your home and may include therapeutic exercises, manual therapy (stretching, passive range of motion, joint mobilization, etc), massage, neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), laser therapy, and pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF). Each treatment session will be tailored to your specific dog's needs. Typically, a series of at least 8-12 rehabilitation sessions are recommended depending on your pet's condition.
Acupuncture Session - $120
This treatment session is scheduled for 45 minutes in your home and includes acupuncture treatment, as well as laser therapy and PEMF therapy if appropriate. Typically, a series of at least 4-6 acupuncture treatments followed by a tapering maintenance program are recommended.
Trip Fee - $30 if <15 miles from Six Mile, $50 if >15 miles from Six Mile
A trip fee will be assessed for each appointment/location. If there is more than one dog being treated at a single location, or if one patient is receiving both a rehabilitation and an acupuncture session, there will only be one trip fee assessed.
