How Laser Therapy Works
Laser therapy stimulates the body’s natural healing processes. During a treatment session lasting about 3 to 8 minutes, non-thermal photons of light are applied to the affected area and absorbed by the injured cells. This stimulation increases the cells’ metabolism rate, resulting in pain relief, improved circulation, reduced inflammation, and accelerated healing.
What to Expect During a Treatment Session
Your pet will relax and enjoy the therapy session as the laser is administered. The immediate pain relief allows your pet to be comfortable, and any anxiety they may experience dissipates. In some cases, pets may even start purring or fall asleep during their therapy session. Owners often notice significant improvements in their pet’s mobility and behavior following laser therapy, such as increased activity levels and improved quality of life.
