Rehabilitation products

TENS unit

Recommended by: 
@catie.and.the.boys
​@louis.on.wheels
Transcutaneous Electrical Neuromuscular Stimulation (TENS) works in dogs by sending low level currents to an area of muscle that has been injured or weakened due to lack of use, stimulating it and forcing it to contract.
​
This approach is also used in the rehabilitation of dogs with spinal cord injuries. You should consult your vet or physiotherapist for instructions on their proper placement and use. 

Heat pad

Recommended by: 
@betsy_the_cart_dog_and_friends
The application of heat is used to reduce stiffness and muscle spasms, increase blood flow and relieve pain. Unlike cold therapy, heat therapy is applied after the initial swelling and inflammation (a.k.a. irritation) stage of an injury.

​Heat therapy is most commonly applied to joints: shoulders, elbows and wrists in the front legs; and hips, knees and ankles in the back legs. It can be used on any part of your dog's body where muscle damage, strain or spasm occurs. For example, a dog with a disc problem in the spine (neck or back) may have muscle spasms, which heat therapy can relieve.

Spine and joint supplements

Vetri-disc

Recommended by @betsy_the_cart_dog_and_friends
A unique formulation designed exclusively to support connective tissues associated with the spine. The main ingredient, bovine tracheal cartilage is a rich source of chondroitin sulfates which make up the connective tissue matrix and are found in an especially high concentration in the spinal and invertebrate disc tissues. Other ingredients like taurine and equisetum arvense are necessary for the synthesis of connective tissue, while minerals like calcium and magnesium support bone growth and maintenance.
