Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the veterinary rehabilitation services market, especially in 2020. This negative impact was mainly due to lockdown in various countries, which led to closures and restrictions on access to veterinary care. This fact has created barriers for pets to access veterinary rehabilitation services for their beloved companions due to the shutdown and forced closure of rehabilitation centers. In addition, natural rehabilitation centers faced major challenges during the pandemic due to the risk of disease transmission in facilities and native habitats.

Furthermore, the growing adoption of pet insurance with rehabilitation services coverage, post-pandemic return to normality with the resumption of veterinary rehab services, expansion in the number of vet rehab centers, and increased animal healthcare expenditure are some of the other factors driving the market value.

Veterinary Rehabilitation Services Market Trends

Veterinary rehabilitation or therapy utilises a range of non-invasive techniques to improve pet's mobility, decrease the pain associated with movement, and improve their quality of life. Physical rehabilitation for veterinary patients expedites return to normal function, pain relief, and encouragement of optimal health for patients suffering from orthopaedic, neurologic, and chronic diseases.

The rapid growth of urbanization and increasing public awareness about these services may also foster the market growth of veterinary rehabilitation services. Furthermore, the growing number of rescued animals and the ever-increasing healthcare expenditure on animal care and the infrastructure of veterinary rehabilitation services are propelling the market landscape.  The therapeutic modalities provided by veterinary rehabilitation services, as well as the launch of new veterinary rehabilitation programs that offer training in rehabilitation and other novel treatment modalities for the rehabilitation of animals, may aid in the market's expansion.

Based on animal type, the veterinary rehabilitation services market is segmented into companion animals, production animals, and other wildlife animals. The companion animals market segment held the greatest market share, and this trend is predicted to continue during the forecast period. The factors that account for the highest share of the market are rising pet ownership rates particularly in developed regions, rising pet healthcare service costs, an increase in the prevalence of chronic orthopaedic disorders, and rapidly expanding physical rehabilitation needs.

In addition, the growing population rate of dogs in every region further propels the market’s progression. In September 2021, according to the AKC (American Kennel Club), the number of U.S. households owning dogs reached 69 million (54%) in 2021 which increased from 50% in 2018.

By indication, the veterinary rehabilitation services market is segmented into post-surgery, traumatic injuries, acute & chronic diseases, developmental abnormalities, and other indications. The post-surgery segment dominated the market and accounted for the largest market share in 2022. This substantial share is owing to the growing number of orthopaedic surgeries performed for dogs and cats, with the increasing number of veterinarians directing pets toward rehabilitation centers after surgery.  Orthopaedic surgeries for companion animals are one of the common procedures that veterinarians perform to treat musculoskeletal issues. Post-operative patients are more likely to consider rehabilitation to reduce inflammation & pain and to improve the healing rate. Physical rehabilitation therapy after surgery has become more common in the veterinary field with newer advancements, which further contributes to segment share.

These centers are very crucial for veterinary rehabilitation services as they provide professional therapies with certified veterinary rehabilitators.
