Please take a look around and introduce yourself to our staff and facility. Come by anytime so we can show you why we are the best at what we do

What we do

The staff at Salem Oregon Animal Rehabilitation is vested in the health and well being of your pet! We are here to reduce pain, increase function and get your pet back to normal as quickly as possible. We also assist in weight management programs and fitness for working and sporting dogs. This can include various exercises you can use in your own home at your leisure.

We will keep you and your veterinarian informed every step of the way and include you in the rehabilitation process.

Our Company

At SOAR we take a team approach to helping our patients and their owners and work together to provide effective, compassionate care.

Although our list of equipment is extensive and cutting edge, it’s really our experience and commitment that has led to successfully graduating our patients. Our veterinarians and technicians work hand in hand to provide the best care for your pet.

What is Animal Rehabilitation?

The goal of veterinary rehabilitation is to decrease pain, increase mobility, and restore your pet to their prior activity level. Benefits range from helping an older arthritic patient achieve a higher level of comfort and activity, to preventing injury from occurring in the first place with conditioning, exercise, and nutrition programs.

Animal rehabilitation is similar in many ways to human physical therapy. “Why don’t you call it that?” you ask. Well, physical therapy and physical therapist are actually copyrighted terms by the human physical therapy group. In veterinary medicine we call it physical rehabilitation and rehabilitation technicians, assistants and practitioners. Animal physical rehabilitation strives to provide the same and even more modalities than human physical therapy. We provide post-surgery, geriatric mobility services, pain management, trauma recovery, and weight loss. As well, we provide physical fitness for all our sporting patients.


Your pet can be the next superstar at SOAR!
