Laser therapy offers an alternative to invasive surgical treatments in treating many types of pet conditions. Laser therapy is less painful, non-invasive, and drug-free. It’s a practical option for pets that cannot undergo surgery due to their age or health or pets who don’t respond well to medications for treatment. At Aloha Animal Hospital, our Vista veterinarian offers laser therapy as a treatment option for pet owners in Vista, Oceanside, San Marcos, Fallbrook, Bonsall, Carlsbad, Escondido, and the surrounding areas.
What is Laser Therapy for Pets?
Laser therapy is a type of treatment that makes use of light energy from a hand-held laser to help heal various conditions in pets. As the laser is passed over affected areas, it emits energy that targets damaged tissues to help them heal. Laser therapy reduces pain and inflammation and promotes quicker healing by stimulating cellular regeneration. Most treatments last 10 minutes or less and pet owners are often allowed to stay with their pets during treatment. Another benefit of laser treatment is that it causes no negative side effects for your pet.
