Pet Laser Therapy
At River Rock Animal Hospital, we offer this innovative approach to improve your pet's well-being.
Promote Faster Healing With Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is a proven method to enhance the speed, quality, and tensile strength of tissue repair in pets. By applying red and near-infrared light (600nm-1000nm) from our laser, this therapeutic treatment supports the healing process, making it suitable for soft-tissue injuries, joint conditions, and non-healing wounds.
Address Inflammation and Pain Through Pet Laser Therapy
Laser therapy can help alleviate discomfort in injured or sick pets. The treatment works by reducing oxidative stress and increasing ATP production, leading to improved cell metabolism and reduced inflammation. Whether your pet is dealing with a joint condition or neuropathic pain, laser therapy may provide relief and aid their recovery.
