Multimodal Pain Management

Healing beyond
medication alone.

Pain doesn’t have one cause — and it doesn’t have one treatment. Our multimodal approach combines complementary therapies to address pain at multiple levels, supporting healing rather than just masking symptoms.

Therapies we offer

  • Acupuncture — fine-needle therapy targeting trigger points to support pets with chronic pain, mobility issues, and post-surgical recovery.
  • Chiropractic care — gentle adjustments that improve joint mobility and reduce compensation patterns in older or injured pets.
  • Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) injections — using your pet’s own platelets to support joint and soft-tissue healing.
  • Therapeutic laser therapy — non-invasive light therapy that reduces inflammation and supports tissue repair at the cellular level.

When multimodal makes sense

Multimodal pain management is especially helpful for pets with:

  • Osteoarthritis or other joint disease
  • Soft-tissue injuries
  • Post-surgical recovery
  • Chronic conditions where pain medication alone isn’t enough

Pain management plans at Riverwood are always tailored to your pet, often combining several therapies and adjusting as their condition evolves.
