WHAT IS animal LASER THERAPY?

Supporting the their natural healing processes

Therapeutic laser therapy, also known as photobiomodulation, uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to stimulate and support the body’s natural healing processes.

It is gentle and non-invasive and can be used to help manage pain and inflammation, support tissue repair and recovery, and improve comfort and mobility.

Treatment can be tailored to the individual animal, whether supporting recovery from injury, managing an ongoing condition or helping them remain comfortable and active.

How does animal laser therapy work?

Photobiomodulation uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light, which are absorbed by cells and help stimulate biological processes involved in energy production, repair and recovery.

This can help the body manage inflammation, support tissue healing, improve circulation and reduce pain — working with the animal’s own natural repair processes.
