Cold Laser Therapy
What is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy for dogs and cats uses a low-intensity laser or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to help relieve pain, stimulate and enhance cell function, and improve healing.
Several conditions have been shown to improve with the use of laser therapy, including muscle and joint pain, arthritis symptoms, and muscle spasms.
Pet laser therapy is non-invasive. Laser therapy does not have any negative side effects and no sedation is required. We also do not need to shave the area being treated.
