Laser Therapy

Does your pet suffer from chronic pain? Has a recent surgery or injury slowed your normally active companion down?

Laser therapy is a painless, non-invasive treatment modality that triggers the body’s natural healing and pain control response. Through this innovative technology, your loved one can enjoy less pain, improved mobility and shorter recovery periods. It can be used as a standalone therapy or as a complement to other treatment methods. 

Benefits of Laser Therapy

• Anti-Inflammation – decreases swelling from bruising/inflammation
• Anti-Pain – blocks pain by decreasing nerve sensitivity
• Accelerates tissue repair, cell growth and nerve function
• Improves circulation
• Accelerates healing and reduces scarring

What can laser therapy treat?

• Arthritis
