The Benefits of Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy is enjoyable and relaxing for most pets, and it can also provide numerous health benefits. The process of cold laser therapy promotes natural healing in the body by stimulating cell regeneration and circulation.
This drug-free process can also provide substantial pain relief for pets healing from surgery or a significant wound or injury. It is also ideal for pets with sensitivities or those who need alternative therapy to standard pain medication.
Cold laser therapy is painless and efficient, and can be easily integrated into an existing care plan, making it a smart choice for almost any recovering pet.

Laser Therapy Methods & Session Details
When you bring your pet in for cold laser therapy, our team will begin by getting them into the proper position on a comfortable, padded surface and then providing them with protective eyewear they will wear throughout the procedure.
From there, the therapy session will entail a vet gently moving a cold laser wand over the affected area, delivering light energy to stimulate healing.
Most pets will not only tolerate cold laser therapy but find it relaxing and comforting. However, some pets may struggle with the unfamiliarity of the process. Your pet’s veterinarian will work with you on ways to help your pet feel comfortable with any future treatments.
