Pet Laser Therapy in Allen Park, MI
In veterinary medicine, laser treatment has a wide range of applications, including increasing surgical possibilities, accelerating wound and tissue healing, and improving physical therapy outcomes.
Pet Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is used to promote cell re-growth and healing of your dog’s tissue to increase the speed, quality, and tensile strength of tissue repair, It resolves
Inflammation, and gives pain relief. It is a valuable modality due to the prospect of shorter recovery times. The therapeutic use of low-power laser light in animals has become known as Low-Level Laser Therapy, or LLLT; also sometimes called “Cold Laser Therapy’. The term cold laser is used because this device utilizes light rather than heat and stimulates cells beneath the skin. Laser Therapy works on the principle of inducing a biological response through energy transfer, in that the photonic energy delivered into the tissue by the laser modulates the physical processes within that tissue and those within the biological system of which that issue is a part. Electrotherapy and low-level laser are used in physiotherapy to assist in the attenuation of pain and to stimulate tissue repair. The dosage delivered by the practitioner during laser treatment is determined by the condition being treated, and the desired therapeutic effect.
