Cold Laser Therapy for Pets in Elrose, SK
Safe, Non-Invasive Pain Relief and Healing
At Hooves and Paws Veterinary Clinic, we are proud to offer cold laser therapy for pets—a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that helps reduce pain, speed up healing, and enhance your pet’s comfort and mobility. Whether your pet is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or healing from an injury, cold laser therapy is a safe and effective way to support their recovery and overall well-being.
What Is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy, also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT), uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity. When applied to an affected area, the laser penetrates deep into tissues, increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and encouraging faster tissue repair.
This painless treatment is ideal for dogs, cats, equine, and other animals recovering from injuries, living with arthritis, or experiencing general muscle and joint discomfort. It’s also frequently used post-surgery to improve healing and reduce swelling.
How Does Cold Laser Therapy Work?
Our trained veterinary team directs a handheld device over the treatment area. The laser emits light energy that the body’s cells absorb, triggering natural biological processes such as:
- Increased circulation
- Accelerated cell growth and regeneration
- Reduced inflammation
- Endorphin release (natural pain relief)
- Improved tissue repair
Each session typically lasts between 5 and 20 minutes, depending on your pet’s size and condition. Most pets find the treatment relaxing and enjoy the soothing warmth.
Conditions Treated with Laser Therapy
We recommend cold laser therapy for a variety of acute and chronic conditions, including:
- Arthritis and degenerative joint disease
- Hip dysplasia
- Post-surgical healing
- Soft tissue injuries (sprains, strains)
- Lick granulomas
- Wounds and abrasions
- Inflammatory conditions
- Chronic pain
Why Choose Laser Therapy for Your Pet?
Cold laser therapy is a safe, drug-free way to improve your pet’s quality of life. It can be used alone or alongside other treatments to enhance outcomes. Benefits include:
- Faster healing times
- Reduced need for medications
- Pain relief without sedation or side effects
- Increased mobility and range of motion
- Better long-term comfort for aging or arthritic pets
Many pets begin to show improvement after just a few sessions, though a full treatment plan is often recommended for chronic conditions.
