Our pain management protocols are tailored to your pet’s specific needs, whether they require short-term relief following surgery or long-term care for chronic pain conditions such as osteoarthritis. We use a variety of pain-relief methods, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opioids, and joint supplements. For pets with severe or persistent pain, we may recommend advanced therapies such as laser therapy or acupuncture.

In addition to medication, we offer physical rehabilitation to help pets regain mobility and strength. Rehabilitation exercises, massage therapy, and heat treatments can significantly reduce pain and improve joint function, especially in aging pets or those recovering from surgery. Our goal is to address both the physical and emotional aspects of your pet’s pain, ensuring they feel comfortable and supported throughout their recovery.

We also provide pet owners with guidance on how to manage their pet’s pain at home. This includes advice on adjusting your pet’s exercise routine, providing comfortable bedding, and using heat or cold therapy as needed. Our team is always available to answer your questions and adjust your pet’s pain management plan as necessary.

At Utah Veterinary Hospital, we believe that no pet should suffer in silence. If you notice any signs of pain or discomfort in your pet, such as limping, restlessness, or difficulty moving, contact us for a comprehensive evaluation. Our compassionate team is here to ensure your pet lives a happy, pain-free life.
