What is involved?
Laser therapy involves passing a
laser beam across your pet's skin directly above the area to be
treated. To your pet it feels like some warmth is being dispensed
to the exact spot where the tissue needs help. The beam of Laser
light is passed over the area for usually for 3 to 8 minutes.Your
pet does not experience any pain or discomfort.
What effects does Laser Therapy produce?
Laser
therapy is credited with many important and beneficial effects
including pain relief, accelerated healing of injuries, increased
circulation, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, reduced scarring,
increased patient comfort and range of motion.
Number of sessions?
Treatments are
cumulative in nature. For best results, several treatments are
generally needed. For chronic conditions, expect 6-10
treatments.
Does Laser therapy cause side effects?
Side effects are not generally
provoked by the proper use of a therapy laser unit.
Strength of our Therapy Laser
We are using a Class IV therapeutic
laser which has the capability of penetrating much deeper into
tissues than class I-III units. This allows for more versatile
applications, more power,better efficiency and improved
results.
We are excited to bring this
leading edge technology to our patients. Not only is it
non-invasive and non-painful, but it affords other choices for
managing chronic conditions and for rehabilitation of acute
problems.

NOTE: Therapeutic Laser is an
entirely different application and equipment
than the Surgical
Laser we use for surgical procedures.
