How Therapy Laser Can Help Your Pet

Therapy laser is a cold laser that uses a special frequency red light laser to penetrate the tissue. Laser therapy uses electromagnetic energy interacting chemically and biologically with tissue to produce "photo-bio-stimulation." It is used in human and animal medicine, treating tissue in a non-invasive and drug-free way. The special laser helps the cell make energy, benefiting your pet in these ways: 

1.  Faster healing by increasing cellular energy
2. Reduce pain by reducing neuronal impulses and stimulating the release of endorphins, which is the body's natural pain killer
3. Reduce inflammation by decreasing the release of inflammatory chemicals, increasing cellular activity, and reducing edema through dilation of the lymphatic vessels and activation of the lymph drainage system
4. Heal skin, muscle and nerves by increasing blood flow, releasing pro-healing cellular chemicals and stimulating collagen production.

We can use therapy laser for:

1. Ear inflammation and disease (chronic or acute)
