What Does Laser Therapy Do?
Therapy lasers are becoming more common in veterinary medicine - and with good reason. These tools help pets find relief from pain and infection without the need for drugs or surgery. The treatment itself is gentle and painless, generating light energy to repair damaged cells and help the body mend.
The most important benefits that laser therapy provides for our patients include:
- Reducing bruising, swelling, and inflammation of muscle tissue and skin
- Increasing blood circulation throughout the body and to affected areas
- Healing wounds and infections more quickly
- Helping our patients feel more energized
Will My Pet Need More Than One Treatment?
The number of treatments your pet needs depends on their condition. Acute issues, such as injuries to the skin or surgical incisions, can be managed in as little as one session. Chronic problems, like arthritis and ongoing diseases, may need multiple treatments and patience.
