What is Laser Therapy for Pets?
Laser therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to interact with tissue, helping to accelerate the body's natural healing process. This non-invasive treatment is quick and painless and can provide relief and promote healing for a variety of conditions. This technology has transformed how we manage pet health, offering a drug-free and surgery-free method to ease pain and reduce inflammation.
The magic of laser therapy lies in its ability to stimulate the body's cells to heal at an accelerated rate. When the laser light is applied to your pet's body, it penetrates the tissue without damaging it. This process, known as photobiomodulation, encourages cells to regenerate and increases blood circulation, leading to decreased inflammation, pain relief, and faster healing.
