How Does Cat & Dog
Laser Therapy Work?

Cat and dog laser therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-level light to penetrate the skin and stimulate cells, promoting healing and reducing pain. The cold laser's light energy helps increase circulation and decreases inflammation in targeted areas, making it an effective option for pets with injuries, chronic conditions like arthritis, or those recovering from surgery. This gentle process is painless and relaxing for pets, often resulting in quicker recovery times and improved comfort. Cat and dog laser therapy can be a valuable addition to your pet’s care plan, supporting their overall well-being and enhancing their quality of life.

What to Expect During Your Pet’s Laser Therapy Session

Each pet is unique, and the effectiveness of laser therapy depends on how they respond to the treatment. Some pets may require several sessions before noticeable improvement, while others could see benefits after just one. Sessions typically last between 10-30 minutes and are conducted in one of our exam rooms. For safety, both your pet and anyone present will need to wear protective goggles during the procedure.
