We offer cold laser therapy (called photobiomodulation) that can be used for anything that causes pain/inflammation (any disease process that ends in "itis"). The is a cutting-edge therapeutic option that is used by many professional athletes to help speed healing from injuries and relieve pain. Cold laser therapy isn't like the laser you see in a photocopier or the laser pointer professors favor in lecture halls or even like the lasers that are used for surgery. The Companion therapy laser system sends photons, or packets of light energy, deep into tissue without damaging it. These photons are absorbed within the mitochondria of the cells and induce a chemical change called "photo-bio-modulation". This light energy then inspires production of ATP in the cell. ATP is the fuel, or energy, cells need for repair and rejuvenation. Impaired or injured cells do not make this fuel at an optimal rate. Increased ATP production leads to healthier cells, healthier tissue, and healthier animals. If your pet is feeling pain, has inflammation, or a wound, the laser is a pain-free, surgery-free, drug-free treatment. The laser is used to treat a variety of injuries, wounds, fractures, neurological conditions, numerous dermatological problems, arthritis and pain. Whether your pet is rehabilitating from trauma or injury, healing from wounds, or simply aging. Laser therapy has been shown to provide relief and speed healing. This website answers many common questions people have about laser treatment.
