A powerful alternative or supplement to pharmaceuticals, reducing the need for long-term medication and avoiding potential side effects.
How Laser Therapy Works and What to Expect
Laser therapy uses targeted light energy as part of a veterinarian-guided treatment plan. Sessions are non-invasive and are designed to be comfortable for pets. Your veterinarian will decide whether this therapy fits your pet's condition and how it should be used with other care.
Laser therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to trigger a cellular response called photobiomodulation. This process increases circulation and draws water, oxygen, and nutrients to the damaged area.
When Laser Therapy May Be Recommended
Your veterinarian may discuss laser therapy as part of care for arthritis or joint discomfort, post-surgical recovery, wounds, and certain tendon or ligament injuries. Laser therapy does not replace an examination. A veterinary evaluation helps determine the cause of your pet's signs and whether this treatment fits the care plan.
