What Pet Laser Therapy Can Treat

Pets can experience discomfort, reduced mobility, and a poor quality of life due to various conditions. Fortunately, laser therapy can effectively treat:

Arthritis
Hip and elbow dysplasia
Cranial cruciate ligament ruptures
Intervertebral disc disease
Wounds
Post-surgical incisions
Lick granulomas
Hot spots
Acute and chronic ear infections (otitis)
Gingivitis and stomatitis
Anal gland inflammation

When used in conjunction with traditional Western medicine, such as surgery and pharmaceutical products, laser therapy is most effective at managing pain and inflammation while speeding the healing process.

How Does Laser Therapy Work?

Laser therapy uses a handheld device to deliver targeted light energy to specific areas of your pet’s body. This light penetrates the tissue and stimulates cells to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a vital energy source for cellular repair and regeneration. The process reduces inflammation, improves blood flow, and speeds healing while providing natural pain relief.

Key Benefits of Laser Therapy

Reduces pain and inflammation
Enhances circulation and tissue repair
Decreases recovery time
Requires no sedation or anesthesia

Laser Therapy Treatment Process

The handheld device gently glides over the affected areas, emitting a soothing warmth that many pets find relaxing. Sessions last between 3 and 8 minutes, depending on the condition and area being treated.

Acute conditions may require just one session, while chronic conditions often benefit from a series of treatments to achieve optimal results.

Is Laser Therapy Right for Your Pet?

Laser therapy is a versatile treatment that benefits pets with a range of conditions, from minor injuries to chronic diseases. Most pets can safely undergo laser therapy, but a physical exam is essential to determine if it’s the best option for your pet.

Please note: Laser therapy is not recommended for pets with cancerous or potentially cancerous growths.
