Advanced Veterinary Care

At Shelbyville Road Veterinary Clinic, we know that caring for your pet is more than just routine checkups and vaccinations. Whether your furry friend is experiencing pain, aging, or needs specialized care, we offer alternative animal care treatments that go beyond the basics to ensure your pet lives a long, happy, and healthy life.

Common Advanced Care Procedures

Our veterinarians offer the following advanced care options for your dog or cat:

Pet Pain Management

No one likes seeing their pet in pain, and thankfully, there are many ways to help. Pain management for pets can include medications, physical therapy, and even non-invasive options like laser therapy. Our team works closely with you to develop a pain management plan tailored to your pet’s needs, ensuring they remain comfortable, active, and enjoying life as much as possible.

Laser Therapy For Dogs and Cats

Pet laser therapy is a fantastic option for reducing pain and inflammation. Laser therapy for cats and dogs is a non-invasive treatment that uses light to stimulate cells and promote healing. It's especially helpful for pets with arthritis, recovering from surgery, or suffering from chronic pain. The best part? Veterinary laser therapy is painless and can offer fast relief, with most pets feeling the benefits after just a few sessions.

Pet Acupuncture

Acupuncture isn’t just for humans; there's also animal acupuncture! This ancient Chinese practice involves placing tiny needles in specific points of the body to relieve pain, improve circulation, and promote healing. Veterinary acupuncture is particularly beneficial for pets with chronic pain, arthritis, and even anxiety. Don’t worry—most pets tolerate the needles really well, and some even find the sessions relaxing.

Pet Chiropractic Care

Just like humans, pets can benefit from chiropractic care. This treatment focuses on aligning the spine and joints to improve mobility and reduce pain. Whether your pet has a slipped disc, arthritis, or general stiffness, veterinary chiropractic care can help them move more comfortably and feel better overall.

Pet Behavioral Therapy

Does your pet struggle with anxiety, aggression, or other behavioral issues? Our veterinary team can help. Our veterinarians work with you and your pet to address underlying problems and improve their behavior. Whether it’s separation anxiety, fear of loud noises, or aggression toward other animals, our veterinarians will create a plan to help your pet feel more comfortable and confident.
