Providing a Transforming, Non-invasive Therapy for Your Pets
Cold Laser Therapy is an excellent non-invasive option for many conditions from which pets suffer, including arthritis, gingivitis, lick granulomas, cystitis, otitis, aural hematomas, stomatitis, and other forms of inflammation. Cold laser therapy is most often used to speed wound healing.
What Is A Cold Laser?
The cold laser is simply a beam of special wavelengths of light that is applied to the surface of the skin. It is NOT a thermal or ‘hot’ laser; therefore it does NOT cut tissue like laser surgery.
How Does It Work?
These special light waves interact with cells, creating beneficial changes in them and energizing them, leading to healing and reduction of inflammation. Increased metabolic activity is observed within the cell which leads to faster healing, reduced inflammation, less scar tissue formation, increased oxygen to blood cells, increased production of specific enzymes, nerve stimulation, and greater metabolic activity.
How Is The Therapy Given?
Depending on the pet’s specific condition, we will give you a recommendation as to how many initial sessions are needed to see a response. The sessions simply consist of a comfortable visit to our clinic, averaging 15 minutes, where a light probe is applied in a particular way by one of our trained and certified staff members to the specific body part that needs treatment. You, the Pet Parent, can choose to keep your pet company throughout the session!
