Phototherapy (Laser Therapy)
Laser (also called Photo or Light or Cold) is a therapy for treating pain, inflammation and edema and for repairing superficial lesions. Pet owners don’t want to see their pets suffer from muscle and joint pain. Pet laser therapy has a number of benefits for your pet and can be used on a number of conditions including:
- Arthritis
- Acute and chronic pain
- Back injuries
- Sprains and strains
- Inflammation and edema
- Wound healing
Laser therapy is a non-surgical treatment with no sedation or chemical restraint required. This extremely safe method of treatment often provides immediate results with some pets feeling better within 12 to 24 hours after treatment.
Phototherapy has been proven to be very effective for the treatment of acute injuries and chronic conditions. Results can include:
- Rapid disappearance of pain,
- Anti-inflammatory effects,
- Timely healing of sprains and strains,
- Rapid recovery of the structural integrity of the injured muscle,
- Rapid resolution of edematic conditions,
- Immediate improvement of local blood circulation,
- Stimulates healing of superficial injuries, such as wounds and ulcers.
