TESTIMONIALS ON SPECIAL SERVICES AVAILABLE


Katie Boo had been gradually failing due to osteoarthritis. She was unable to enjoy life and could barely get around the house and yard. After 2 stem cell therapy treatments Katie Boo is doing very well and is not showing declining mobility any longer. Her pet parent, Dave, says " She gets up and down easier, and her overall spirit is up. I feel like this treatment has provided real relief from the arthritis symptoms. She is playing with the other dogs again!"

Call our doctors to ask about the measureable success the STEM CELL THERAPY provides.

 

Stem Cell Therapy Now Available at the Hope Vet Clinic

Stem cell therapy is quickly developing into a realistic solution for dogs and cats, with a significant success rate. The stem cell fluid can help your pet’s body heal itself. It is a natural form of treatment using adult stem cell fluid from an equine source. This form of medical therapy is called "regenerative", in other words it helps the body to heal itself by producing new cells to replace or aid the injured or ill cells. This new stem cell therapy helps animals with overall health and vitality. Because of its reparative properties, healing begins at the time of injection and continues healing for months after the injection.

This digital radiograph shows a classic cardiomyopathy in one of our canine patients. The 9 year old chihuahua presented with coughing and wheezing. His heart spanned more than 7 rib spaces, with sternal contact and an elevated trachea. A full cardiac workup with ultrasound, labwork, blood pressure and EKG was performed.
The heart is so enlarged it is pushing up against the trachea, causing shortness of breath.
Our doctors place the patient on a regimen of medications, and nutritional treatment. He is carefully monitored for eight months, then radiographs are done again to check the progress of the heart disease.
Less than one year later, the heart shows a dramatic decrease in size. Now the patient has only mild pulmonary edema, and the heart is less than 1/3 of the previous size. Just as in a human patient, the medications and medical care are improving his quality of life and longevity!
Originally diagnosed in Sept 2009, he is still going strong today!

Let's ask Chester if the new physical therapy laser is helping him with his arthritis. After completing a partial treatment protocol, he is already walking with his legs straighter, feeling much better, and has a happier attitude. Chester is now going into the yard to explore instead of staying on the porch and watching the other dogs have all the fun. 


 How does the new physical therapy laser work? The laser light produces oxygen in the cells which increases metabolism, boosts collagen production, stimulates nerve cells, and improves blood circulation in the tissue. These cells then produce substances such as endorphins that spread and circulate in the blood vessels and lymphatic system making the pet feel better.
