Laser therapy is a painless, non-invasive technology used to treat acute and chronic injuries, accelerate the healing process after surgery, and alleviate joint pain. It works by stimulating cell regeneration, increasing blood flow to the targeted area, and releasing the body’s own pain-relieving hormones.
The process generally takes between 5-10 minutes, with most patients seeing positive effects after 3-5 uses. The treatment continues to relieve pain and fight inflammation for up to 24 hours following the session.
Conditions improved with laser therapy:
- Hip dysplasia
- Post-surgical incisions and soft-tissue trauma
- Arthritis and degenerative joint disease
- Musculoskeletal injuries
- Neuromuscular disease
- Lick Granulomas
- Hot Spots
- Acute and Chronic Otitis
- Cystitis
Laser therapy is normally combined with other types of veterinary medicine including pharmaceutical regimens and alternative treatments. The broad biochemical benefits and lack of adverse side effects have made laser therapy the preferred post-operative rehab method in veterinary medicine.
In addition to laser therapy, we also offer Phovia Treatment and Assisi Loop Therapy.
Phovia Treatment harnesses the power of Fluorescent Light Energy to positively support the management of acute traumatic wounds. The Assisi Loop Therapy is an electromagnetic field, a non-pharmaceutical anti-inflammatory device that is scientifically proven to alleviate pain and inflammation in animals without the undesirable effects caused by extended use of pharmaceuticals.
