How Does it Work?Cold Laser Therapy is a painless service that stimulates the body's natural ability to heal. Wavelengths of light signal the body to release pain relieving compounds and encourage the body's healing process to speed up recovery. Some dogs may show signs of immediate relief after their first session, but the best results are seen after a series of sessions.
What to ExpectAcute conditions may be resolved within a few sessions, while chronic conditions may require multiple sessions over several weeks. Often times, Cold Laser Therapy is used in conjunction with other rehab services as part of an overall Rehab Plan. You can learn more about the Rehab Services we offer here. When performed on their own, Cold Laser Therapy sessions may last anywhere from 15 - 60 minutes, depending upon the number of areas being treated and the dog's personality/cooperation.
