Frequently Asked Questions:
How does laser therapy work?
Laser energy increases circulation by drawing water, oxygen, and nutrients to the damaged area. This creates an optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasms, stiffness, and pain.
What does the patient feel during a treatment?
There is little or no sensation during treatment. Occasionally, the patient feels a mild, soothing warmth or tingling sensation. Areas of pain or inflammation may be sensitive briefly before pain reduction.
Why is laser therapy used in clinic?
We have added this service to Northern Oak Animal Hospital because we want to provide an effective and safe treatment option for our patients to heal quickly, recover fully, and reduce pain effectively. Ask if laser therapy may be right for your pet!
