Laser Therapy

Does your pet suffer from chronic pain? Has a recent surgery or injury slowed down your normally active companion? 

Laser therapy is a painless, non-invasive treatment that uses the power of light to stimulate the body’s natural ability to heal and control pain. With the therapeutic laser, your loved one can benefit from decreased pain, enhanced mobility, and faster recovery periods. It can be used independently or as a complement to other treatments.

Laser Therapy Benefits

• Anti-Inflammation – decreases swelling from bruising/inflammation
• Anti-Pain – blocks pain by decreasing nerve sensitivity
• Accelerates tissue repair, cell growth and nerve function
• Improves circulation
• Accelerates healing and reduces scarring

Laser therapy can be used to treat and manage a variety of conditions, including but not limited to:

• Arthritis
• Disc Disease
• Hip Dysplasia
• Degenerative Joint Disease

• Dental Problems
• Chronic Pain and Inflammation

Treatment Protocol

Just as every pet is unique, so is their response to laser therapy. Treatment strategies will vary depending on your loved one’s specific condition, its severity, and a number of other factors.
