Beach Animal Rehabilitation - Torrance, California

I'd give a 10 star review if it was possible. My Milo has been coming here over a year. He's 14 with arthritis, gets physical therapy, underwater treadmill, and acupuncture. It's greatly reducing his pain and extending his life. The pic is only from 3 days ago. Wow. All of the employees are wonderful. He loves to go to BARC. I'm so grateful to have found this place. ❤❤❤

I take my senior (17.5yo) dog here every week, bc she deserves to be as comfortable as possible with whatever remaining time we have with her.

The staffs here are wonderful and has taken good care of her. With all the sessions and supplements that were recommended after evaluations, I have noticed improvements. Not like "she has puppy energy again", but more peaceful, calm, regaining of some appetite, longer awake periods, and a little more mobility.
Mind you, she still sleeps more than she walks, but my goal is to make sure she has quality life, and BARC is a regular part of it.

PS. (A bit obvious, but I'm going to mention it anyway) I recommend that you research and make sure that you are able to afford their service. And if you decided to go regularly, I recommended getting the (10 session) package deal. It's not cheap, but amount is less than if you pay for 10 sessions one at a time.

The people here are so tuned into the animals. My boy fell asleep during treatment. The greeting you get when you walk in the door is so warm. The vet tech ...he is so kind to the dogs. The doctors are so understanding and they explain every step of the treatment. Laser, Acupuncture, Full Measures on the consultation! No skipping to save money and no BS.....I was recommended to another Dog Rehabilitation in Orange County and I regret that I bothered with them. This establishment and the staff here washed away that last experience at the place in OC and I now have hope again for Chase to recover faster! B.A.R.C gave me.homework to do at home and hands on instructions on how to massage Chase and stretch and ice him every night! LOVE THEM!!!

We have been taking our 6 year old Dachshund Oliver to BARC for a little over a year now. He was diagnosed with IVDD and had horrible bouts of pain that would reoccur every few months. Some of these episodes were extremely traumatic for us as they basically arose out of nowhere and really left us in a state of shock with no idea on what to do for our baby. I had heard from some other vets that acupuncture was very helpful for dachshunds with similar issues, that was how I initially discovered BARC as they offered this treatment. At our first appointment we discussed all of Oliver's daily habits, activity level, eating habits/diet, pain levels, movement et cetera. The one glaring characteristic was his eating habits, he would regularly skip meals, sometimes only eating a few bites of the dry food we were feeding him. We fed him ziwi peak dry food and many other dry food brands all to similar results, he just showed little interest in the food. His activity level was high, very playful, he moved well he just always had this eating habit of skipping meals and showing no interest in food. Dr. Voulgaris first advised we change his diet to Just Food For Dogs and try weekly acupuncture for pain. The change to JFFD made an IMMEDIATE difference. Oliver was now all of a sudden super food driven, he would finish every single meal, never skipping a meal. He still has never skipped a meal or not finished a meal to this day. This was such a stark change from his past eating habits. Oliver is a pretty nervous and shy dog so we were doubtful he would tolerate acupuncture but he handled it fine, first with us present, then later without us. We could not be happier with BARC, they have seriously changed our lives and helped Oliver regain a pain free life.

Our beloved boy Briggs (12 year old, 80 lb Labrador Retriever) had two surgeries for herniated disks. Two in his neck and two in his lower back. Beach Animal Rehabilitation Center (BARC) was recommended to us by his back surgeon, Dr. Wayne Berry from Southern California Veterinary Hospital. You couldn't ask for a better group of people to help with the rehabilitation of your pet. Everyone there is wonderful and treat you and your pet like family. Briggs worked with everyone there. He had acupuncture, laser therapy, physical therapy and water therapy. They are all top of their game at BARC. We have since recommended them to several friends, coworkers and dog rescues. If you are looking for top quality care by people who will love your pet as their own, this is the place to go. I just cannot say enough good things about them.

I can’t say enough about the amazing team at BARC. My senior year old French Bulldog Kirby goes for physical therapy and acupuncture and they have provided top notch care. She recently had an IVDD flare up and bounced right back which I believe is due to the care she has received during preventative PT and accupuncture sessions. Everyone on staff is always so perceptive to her needs as they evolve. The entire team is also simply pleasure to talk with and have created a very positive environment. Thank you BARC!

I cannot praise Beach Animal Rehabilitation Center enough for the incredible care and support they provided for my furbaby, Romeo. His journey has been marked by various challenges, and it is the exceptional team at this center, particularly Dr. Amy Kramer, who plays a pivotal role in his recovery.

Romeo's story is a testament to the dedication and expertise found at this facility. Approximately seven years ago, he faced severe spinal issues that led to surgeries and complex treatments. Despite numerous setbacks, including medicine-induced Cushing's and paralysis, Dr. Kramer took on the challenge with unwavering commitment.

Dr. Kramer, Romeo's physical therapist, has been nothing short of amazing. Her approach goes beyond the conventional, always going above and beyond to ensure Romeo received the best possible care. I am immensely grateful for her support, expertise, and the genuine care she exhibited throughout the years.

What truly sets this rehabilitation center apart is their holistic approach to animal care. From physical therapy sessions to emotional support, they address every aspect of the pet's well-being. The dedication to staying updated on the latest techniques showcases their commitment to providing top-notch care.

The progress Romeo made under their guidance left both me and his neurologist speechless. The results have been nothing short of miraculous, with Romeo not only walking again but also persevering with his treatment.

The team's encouragement and support were invaluable during what seemed like overwhelming times. Their belief in the potential for recovery and their dedication made the rehabilitation process smoother than I could have ever imagined.

To anyone facing similar challenges with their pets, my advice is simple: don't give up. Seek support from professionals who genuinely care, just like the remarkable team at Beach Animal Rehabilitation Center. Their commitment, expertise, and compassionate approach make them an exceptional choice for anyone seeking the best possible care for their family members (furbabies).

Thank you, Dr. Kramer, for being a beacon of hope and healing for Romeo and countless other animals. Your exceptional care and dedication have made a significant difference in our lives, and we are forever grateful. Romeo and I have been excited for his treatments every week for the past couple of years, and that excitement continues strong today!

P.s. Big thanks to the fantastic team of vets, vet techs, managers, and front desk staff!

I'm one of the most dedicated dog owner's you'll meet. My rescue Nala has multiple different health issues including Hip Dysplasia. BARC is phenomenal and I 100% recommend it.

Jaime - thank you for always trying to accommodate schedules and being so great to communicate with!

Christina - I couldn't have asked for a better person to work with Nala. Thank you for being compassionate, caring, firm when you need to, and overall just incredible at what you do.

Everyone at this location is simply great. Erin the PT always makes sure I know how Nala is progressing - thank you!!
