Laser therapy emits a specific wavelength of light which interacts with cells in the body, a process called photobiomodulation. Therapeutic (so-called “cold”) laser is a safe and gentle way to promote the innate healing capacity of your pet’s body.
Laser therapy is used to treat pain, inflammation, and dysfunction by affecting blood flow, cellular metabolism, and chemical mediators in the body.
Laser therapy can be used in conjunction with traditional acupuncture. It treats local areas while acupuncture is a whole-body therapy.
