🗣Who has extracorporeal shockwave therapy in their practice!!
#aprvt #aprvtsponsor #vetrehabtechs

・・・
Cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) disease is the #1 orthopedic injury in dogs, and is one of the most common causes of hind limb lameness, causing discomfort and decreasing mobility.

⚠️ 40-60% of dogs that have a CCL injury in 1 knee will develop a similar problem in the other knee. Poor physical condition and excessive body weight can also increase the likelihood of an injury.

🦴Tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) is a common surgical procedure used to repair the injury and requires cutting, repositioning, and reattaching the top part of the tibia bone.

🔊Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) can be used post surgically or as part of a rehab program to speed the healing process, improve the quality of the healed joint, and reduce post-operative pain following TPLO.

🔬Check out the published research from CSU's Veterinary Teaching Hospital, and LSU's Veterinary Teaching Hospital, proving our efficacy. Link in Bio!
