Laser Therapy
At Blue Mountain Veterinary Services, we provide laser therapy treatment to help reduce pain and inflammation and improve your pet's mobility.
Laser Therapy
Non-invasive cold laser therapy uses light to spur cell regeneration and send more blood flowing throughout the body.
This therapy treats the surface of the skin and has recently become more popular in helping cats and dogs with a variety of injuries and conditions heal more quickly and effectively.
On average, a laser therapy treatment session takes about 15 to 30 minutes. Number and frequency of these sessions depend on your pet's injury.
During the session, a handheld, wand-shaped laser is waved slowly from left to right over your pet's damaged tissue.

Benefits of Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is a safe, innovative treatment that can be used in combination with or to replace medication to manage inflammation, pain, and healing.
This therapy uses light to stimulate the release of endorphins to relieve pain and help your pet heal more quickly and effectively.
It reduces swelling, boosts the lymphatic system (which allows edema to drain), improves mobility and sends more blood flowing to injured tissues.
