A Message From Joshua Hall, Owner & Founder of Salt Lake Animal Physical Therapy
- Are you worried about your dog’s pain and stiffness that doesn’t go away no matter how much ice or heat, you do?
- Are you looking for natural pain relief for your dogs’ injury?
- Are you frustrated that traditional veterinary treatments haven’t worked?
- Is your dog having trouble keeping up with you and are you missing out on your favorite activity together?
- Are you still looking for a long-term pain relief solution so you can enjoy time with your dog?
If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, you are in the right place! Dog physical therapy can help!
Many dogs with in Salt Lake City and the surrounding areas suffer unnecessarily with pain and stiffness because they’re told…
- Just “rest it” and it’ll be fine (then months later they’re still suffering…)
- It’s “normal” with your dogs age or breed
- If you give your dog some pills everything will be fine.
- Surgery is the only option.
The Truth Is...
- Resting it doesn’t change anything. Your dog might get a small temporary relief, but then when you get active with them again they’ll still be suffering from pain and stiffness (I bet you’ve have experienced it yourself!)
- It’s doesn’t have to be normal for your dog to get pain and stiffness as they get older!
- We offer all natural pain relief for your dogs’ injury.
- Surgery or pain medication is not the only option. Dog physical therapy, aka Canine physical therapy, can and will help
At Salt Lake Animal Physical Therapy We Specialize In Helping in-jured and aging dogs, live their best life with their owners, without pain meds or surgery
It can be very confusing to decide exactly what you should do if you are looking for pain relief for your dog. You’ve likely heard a lot of options such as…
- A family member tells you to try a natural pain relief remedy for dogs.
- A colleague mentions going to a certain veterinarian.
- The “experts” on YouTube recommend your dog doing a certain exercise
- A friend suggests going to a dog injury specialist.
- All while the veterinarian tells you to try this medication or surgery.
It’s overwhelming to try to make a decision with all these choices…what will happen to your dogs’ injury, or will your dog get pain relief, if you don’t make the right one?
Most people get stuck trying to make a decision about what to do next. They go days, weeks, months (even years!) without taking action for their dogs’ pain or injury.
When It Comes To Solving Something Serious Like Your Dogs Pain or Injury…
You must choose the right provider for their health. If you don’t, they could end up getting dan-gerous surgery (when it was unnecessary) or being dependent on painkillers the rest of their life.
Getting the “least-invasive”, most natural treatment is VITAL to you stopping your dogs pain and stiffness and keeping it from ever coming back.
To do that, you have to not just treat the dogs pain, but have a provider who is willing to figure out WHY the pain happened in the first place. That’s when you’ll get a PERMANENT solution to your dogs problems.
Salt Lake City Dog Physical Therapy
As a dog owner, you’d do anything to make sure your pup feels great day after day. Unfortunately, dogs can experience ongoing pain just like people, and that pain may be taking away from your pet’s quality of life. With physical therapy for dogs, we can address the issues that are causing pain and pave the way for many more years of walks, playtime, and more.
Salt Lake Animal Physical Therapy is a canine rehab clinic serving dogs from in and around Salt Lake City, Utah. Whether your dog has been receiving treatment for years or you are looking for help for the first time, our team would be proud to serve you. Get in touch today to learn more!
Signs Your Dog Needs Physical Therapy
- Reduced running. Does your dog seem hesitant to take off running in situations where he or she would have normally taken off in the blink of an eye? If running doesn’t seem attractive to your dog anymore, it might be that some pain or stiffness is getting in the way.
- Signs of pain. This is one of the easiest signs to spot – if you notice that your dog is reacting to certain movements by proceeding carefully or even yelping, something is wrong and physical therapy may be able to help.
- Recent injury. If your dog was recently injured in some kind of accident or incident, canine physical therapy could be a helpful tool on the path toward a healthy future.
Dog Health Conditions Treated by Rehabilitation
- Arthritis. We see a lot of dogs dealing with arthritis in our clinic at Salt Lake Animal Physical Therapy, as this issue is common among dogs as they age or gain weight. Our rehab services can serve these animals well and may help them regain a significant portion of their previous activity level.
- Surgery recovery. Any kind of surgery is a traumatic experience, for humans and dogs alike. Just as many people will head to physical therapy after different types of surgeries, so too can dogs benefit from this kind of treatment.
- Alternative to surgery. If your dog is dealing with an injury that could potentially be treated with surgery, but surgery is not required, therapy offers a different approach. This is a non-invasive way to help your dog recover while also limiting the financial impact of this matter.
- Dealing with dysplasia. Hip dysplasia is a relatively common condition in dogs. When the joint doesn’t develop properly, issues can arise with instability in that joint. Physical therapy is an appropriate way to treat that matter in many cases.
Of course, this list only touches on a few of the many problems that can be addressed through the use of canine rehabilitation. Get in touch with our office today to learn more about our treatment options.

At Salt Lake Animal Physical Therapy we’ve created a 3-step pro-cess to get rid of your dogs pain AND make sure it doesn’t come back again.
Step #1 - We Want To Listen To You and Your Dogs Story
Getting pain relief for your dog can be frustrating. You wait weeks, sometimes months, for an appointment, only to get to talk to the specialist for 10 minutes before they have to run to the next client and you’re left sitting there wondering, “What just happened?”
Even most dog physical therapy clinics operate this way. They’re not attentive, they’re fast-paced, and your therapist doesn’t have time to actually touch your dog where they hurt.
This is why our first step is to listen to your story.
After working with lots of dogs with pain and stiffness, we know that no two dogs are alike. Each dog has a different body, a different history, and different types of pain.
That is why our first step is to have an open conversation and time for you to tell your dogs story. That way we get a deep understanding of what’s going on not just with your dogs’ body, but also how it’s impacting your life together.
Step #2 - Find Out WHY Your Dogs’ Pain Started
Many people have a diagnosis, or medical term for what’s going on with their dogs’ body. Maybe their vet gave it to them, maybe tests showed the diagnosis, or maybe you found it online.
You could have been told that your only choice was to use pain medications or opt for surgery.
Sometimes, those things bring temporarily relief, but they’re not addressing what CAUSED the problem in the first place.
Every dogs’ cause of pain and stiffness is different. No dog has the exact same problem caused by the exact same thing as another dog.
Our goal at Salt Lake Animal Physical Therapy is to find that original cause of your dogs’ pain, so not only does your dogs’ pain go away, it STAYS AWAY!
We understand that you still might be skeptical or unsure if dog physical therapy is right for your dog. That’s why we created a free discovery session. (Yes! That means the first session is ON US!)
Our Discovery Sessions are meant specifically for those people who are skeptical, unsure, or have even been let down in the past. During the Discovery Session you’ll find out what’s wrong with your dog, how long it’s going to take to fix it, and give you peace of mind that your dogs’ problem can be fixed naturally!
Step #3 - Get Rid Of Your Dogs’ Pain & Keep It From Coming Back
This is when the big transformations occur. We develop a personalized plan that allows your dog to…
…Get back to exercising with you without you having to fear their pain and stiffness coming back
…Be able to go for long walks, run, hike, play and just be a dog again
…Get back to their pre-injury lifestyle they love
….Get back to chasing cats
…And much more…
Our best clients are those who are motivated, ready to overcome their dogs’ injury, and ready to win back their active lifestyle with their dog. (Even if they feel stuck right now!)
Want to know more about our availability and costs before making any commitment to coming in?
You don’t have to sacrifice your active lifestyle and happiness with your dog over problems that can be fixed.
Sincerely,
Joshua L. Hall,
