Laser Therapy

What Is Laser Therapy?

Laser therapy is a safe, non-invasive, and drug-free treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate healing and reduce pain—in both dogs and cats. It works by penetrating deep into tissues without causing damage, triggering a natural biological response that speeds recovery and eases discomfort.

How It Works

Laser therapy works by boosting circulation, enhancing cellular repair, and easing discomfort naturally—similar to how sunlight helps plants grow. The light energy stimulates cell activity, encouraging faster healing and reducing inflammation. This makes it an excellent option for pets who cannot tolerate certain medications or who need extra help managing chronic pain.

Conditions We Treat

Commonly treated conditions include:

• Arthritis and joint pain
• Hip dysplasia
• Back and neck pain
• Wounds and skin injuries
• Post-surgical recovery
• Dental inflammation and gum disease
• Skin conditions like lick granulomas and hot spots
• Neurological problems
• Muscle strains and injuries

What to Expect During a Session

Sessions are quick—typically lasting 5 to 15 minutes—completely painless, and relaxing for your pet. Many pets even drift off to sleep during treatment. Some may show improvement after just one session, while chronic or complex conditions often require multiple treatments for the best results.

Part of a Comprehensive Care Plan

Laser therapy is often combined with other treatments, such as physical rehabilitation, medication, or nutritional support, to encourage faster recovery and promote long-term wellness. Our veterinary team will work with you to determine the best plan for your pet’s unique needs.
