Companion Laser Therapy

What is Laser Therapy?
Photobiomodulation is the scientific term for the Companion Therapy Laser's effect on tissue. Deep-penetrating photons from the laser influence cell chemistry in a variety of beneficial ways. Treatment time, power and laser pulse frequency are based on your pet's individual condition and body size. After surgery, patients receiving laser therapy have less pain. Their recovery is faster, with fewer complications.

Ask today if your pet can be helped by this exciting new technology.

Companion Laser TherapyWhat Can You Expect?
There is no patient sedation or restraint required and the experience is pleasant and comforting to the animal. Most pets do not need to have their hair clipped. Many pets will be relieved of their pain immediately following treatment.

Improve the Quality of Your Pet's Life
Your pet can suffer pain and disability. With the Companion Therapy laser, your companion pet can receive treatments enabling them to have a longer and happier life. It is unfortunate that some pets, even with the advancements in veterinary surgery and medicine, never return to their pre-injury or pre-surgical state of life. It is also sad that many of our elderly pets live their last few years in such pain that they have little desire to go on walks, play or be the companion we desire.

Now with the Companion Therapy Laser, your companion pet can return to having an improved and enjoyable life.

Is Your Pet in Pain?
Here are some ways to tell if your pet is in pain.

  • Your pet bends one leg when standing
  • When standing on all feet, one paw is smaller than the other
  • An unusual head position
  • One hip is higher than the other while standing
  • Feel down the spine gently and find "hot spots" when the animal flinches
