As our best friends age, recover from surgery or trauma, or simply need relief from everyday aches and pains this technology offers relief.  Pets benefit from reduced inflammation and pain and show an increased range of motion and show mobility earlier in the recovery process.

What conditions can be treated with cold laser?

Cold laser therapy is used to treat multiple ailments and injuries in dogs and cats.  Treatable conditions include:
 
•    Joint injuries
•    Ligament or tendon injuries
•    Fractures
•    Muscle sprains or strains
•    Skin lesions or abrasions
•    Post-trauma wounds
•    Post-surgical incisions
•    Arthritis
•    Musculoskeletal diseases
•    Nerve injury
 

What does the cold laser do?

Cold laser uses a beam of light to stimulate damaged cells to produce more energy.  The overall cellular function is increased, allowing for rapid absorption of nutrients, elimination of wastes, and  reproduction of new cells.  The new cellular activity aids in:
 
•    Alleviating chronic or acute pain
•    Reducing inflammation
•    Reducing swelling
•    Increasing circulation
•    Speeding up healing and recovery
•    Release of endorphin, the body's natural pain reliever

What are the treatments like?   
 After our veterinarian has prescribed a treatment regimen, treatments are performed by a technician and owners remain with their pet.  The laser is applied directly to the surface of the skin.  Therapy usually needs multiple administrations within the first one to two weeks of treatment.  After the initial set, treatments are spread progressively further apart until the maintenance level needed by your pet is reached.
