Laser Therapy
Healing Dogs and Cats
with Laser Therapy
in New York
Delivering potentially life-saving care to your pet is important to us. As an AAHA-accredited hospital, we go above and beyond to serve our patients and clients with the best care here in New York. To ensure your pet recovers as fully as possible from their injury and/or surgery, we offer the gentle and cumulative healing of laser therapy. Dogs and cats experience pain from injuries and surgeries just like we do. They deserve to have relief from their discomfort to make their recovery easier, so they can return to a healthier and more normal life as soon as possible.
How Laser Therapy Works
Our therapeutic laser does not require drugs or invasive techniques to help your pet. It simply uses low infrared light beams that are absorbed through the skin and muscle tissue, and which penetrate deep into affected areas to repair damaged cells and promote healing.
The procedure itself is gentle, and for some pets, it can be quite relaxing as well.
What to Expect from Your Pet’s Treatment
The nature of your pet’s condition and their response to treatment will dictate the amount and frequency of therapy they will need. Pets with acute conditions often do well with just one treatment session, which might last 10-20 minutes. However, if your companion is experiencing a chronic issue, they will likely need multiple treatments each week, which will then be gradually spaced out as your pet’s condition improves.
