What is a session like?
Appointment Duration:
Standard laser therapy appointments are scheduled for 30 minutes.
In-Home Visits:
For at-home sessions, the technician will bring all necessary equipment to your residence. Please have your pet’s favorite treats available to help keep them calm and still during treatment. The ideal setup is a comfortable area for your pet—such as a rug or pet bed—with a standard electrical outlet nearby for equipment use.
At Our Facility:
For in-clinic appointments, simply bring your pet—and feel free to bring your own treats if preferred. We provide safety glasses for everyone present, along with specially designed “doggles” for your pet.
During Treatment:
Your pet may feel a mild warming sensation at the treatment site. While one technician administers the laser therapy, another will keep your pet relaxed and engaged with gentle petting and treats to ensure a positive experience.
After just a few sessions, many pets grow to enjoy the therapy and look forward to their appointments.
What is Laser Therapy?
Laser therapy is a safe, painless, and effective treatment option for managing both acute and chronic pain and inflammation. It utilizes specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity, enhancing blood circulation and promoting tissue healing and regeneration.
With no known adverse side effects, laser therapy is suitable for pets of all ages and can be safely integrated into treatment plans alongside a wide range of existing health conditions.
In addition to sessions at our rehab facility, we now have a second therapeutic laser unit for us to bring on house calls!
Is Laser Therapy right for my pet?
The veterinarian will perform a thorough evaluation of your pet's condition to determine whether laser therapy is an appropriate and beneficial treatment option.
This therapy is most commonly used to manage chronic pain, such as that associated with arthritis or previous injuries. It is also effective in reducing inflammation related to acute injuries and is frequently utilized to support pain relief and accelerated healing following surgical procedures.
