Introducing Laser Therapy
Our clinic introduced Laser Therapy to our patients at the start of last year!
Our staff is very excited to introduce this technology to your pets to further their recovery and healing after being here with us at East Mountain Animal Hospital.
*all patients must be seen by a DVM for a consult prior to booking a laser session or picking a package option*

what is laser therapy?
The application of light energy to areas of the body to help stimulate healing. Laser light is different than 'normal' light due to it being of a single wavelength and being focused; it is often referred to as a 'low-level' laser as opposed to a surgical or "hot" laser. The wavelength influences the biological effects of the laser; there are some wavelengths that are better for pain, some are better for inflammation while others help with skin lesions.
why
The most common reasons for therapeutic laser therapy include muscular sprain/strain, osteoarthritis, post-op around incisions and wounds (to stimulate and accelerate healing) and any instance where the pet is experiencing musculoskeletal pain.
how
Photo biomodulation (the laser-tissue interaction) effects the body's cells with the most significant interaction helping reduce pain and enhance the healing by increasing microcirculation, stimulating cellular activity and increasing growth factors.
