Healing with Pet Laser Therapy
At Companion Animal Clinic & Pet Resort, your pet’s comfort is very important to us. We never want your pet to be in pain, and we continuously look for new treatments and techniques to keep your pet comfortable and pain free. One advancement is our state-of-the art therapeutic laser therapy. This safe and effective treatment allows us to treat pets that are experiencing pain and allows them to gain their zest for life once again.
Laser Therapy emits a high intensity light beam to painlessly target specific areas of the body where your pet may be experiencing pain. Our veterinarians will work closely with you and your pet to determine the source of pain and decide if laser therapy will help treat the condition.
How Laser Therapy Works
Laser therapy is a drug-free and completely painless treatment option. Laser therapy emits light energy via a beam that penetrates outer tissues and muscle. The light penetrates to cellular level causing the cell to reproduce which decreases pain and promotes healing. Our veterinary technicians will gently massage the area needing treatment with a handheld device that will emit the beam of light. Your pet will experience a warm feeling and usually finds laser therapy relaxing and soothing.
