If your pet needs relief from pain and inflammation, consider pet laser therapy. The non-invasive procedure means pets can receive help without the need for invasive surgery or drugs. At Summit Veterinary Hospital in Los Gatos, our goal is to keep your pet healthy and happy. We accomplish this through a variety of veterinary procedures, including pet laser therapy.

What is Pet Laser Therapy?

If our vet discusses laser therapy, know that it is a viable option requiring no incisions to be made into your pet's skin. Instead, a laser beam is passed over the wounded area. The low-frequency beam of the laser is focused on the tissue residing beneath the wound's surface. The purpose of the beam is to stimulate the tissue to help support the healing process. Application time depends on the location and severity of the condition being treated.

Benefits of Pet Laser Therapy

The laser therapy process does not cause any discomfort to pets receiving the treatment. Instead, it is considered to be less stressful and more relaxing for the animal because, in general, the treatment lasts for a short time. Laser therapy is used for multiple types of medical issues and requires no aftercare, which means no ongoing stress for your pet.
