What is Laser Therapy?

Laser therapy is a popular alternative treatment option for pet pain management, inflammation control, and improved wound healing. By using a concentrated beam of light, laser therapy helps encourage the production of adenosine triphosphate or ATP, which serves as the fuel for cells to repair and rejuvenate the body.

Although the laser emits warmth while it works, most pets find the sensation comfortable, which helps eliminate the need for sedation. As an outpatient procedure, it’s safe for your pet to go home after their appointment. Additionally, the noninvasive nature of the treatment means that it’s safe for cats, dogs, and exotic pets.

Our Laser Therapy Process

At Paws and Claws Medical Center, we’ve spent years improving our laser therapy process to be as efficient as possible. We’ll begin the process by conducting an extensive wellness exam. Treatment is simple and consists of moving the wand slowly over the affected area. Typically, sessions can last anywhere between 10-30 minutes. We’ll closely monitor how your pet reacts to the treatment, as some show visible signs of improvement faster than others. If your pet is suffering from chronic conditions like arthritis, we may recommend that you maintain consistent appointments to help keep their pain and swelling under control.

How Laser Therapy Can Benefit Your Pet

Some of the benefits include:

Reducing the formation of scar tissue
Increasing the metabolism of tissue

Laser Therapy FAQs

At Paws and Claws Medical Center, we never want you to agree to a veterinary service that you don’t understand. That’s why we encourage you to ask any questions that come to mind. Some of the most frequently asked questions about our Miami laser therapy offerings include:

Can I be present while my pet receives treatment?

Yes. We encourage pet owners to sit with their pets during treatment to help comfort them.

Are there any risks associated with laser therapy?

One of the most significant benefits of laser therapy is that there are few risks. Our pet laser therapy is ideal for pets who cannot safely undergo more invasive forms of treatment, including senior pets.

Is laser therapy painful for pets?

Similar to acupuncture, laser treatment blocks nerve receptors and helps your pet feel at ease and relaxed during their appointment.

Dependable Miami Laser Therapy for Pets

Normally, pets don’t require any preparation before laser treatment. However, if your pet is especially anxious, we may put them on anti-anxiety medication to help make treatment more pleasant for everybody involved.
