Let's take a closer look at some key benefits of laser therapy at Sunrise Pet Hospital in Anaheim Hills.

Help Expedite Post-Operative Recovery

Laser therapy is a highly-effective tool used to help expedite healing after surgery. In cases of minor surgery, laser therapy alone is enough to stimulate the healing process and alleviate pain. This treatment is highly-targeted and works directly on affected or injured areas to:

• Strengthen tissue and muscle
• Speed healing
• Improve mobility

Provide Relief from Pain with Laser Therapy

Laser therapy is extremely effective at relieving your pup's pain. This treatment helps open blood vessels, reduce inflammation, and activate your dog's lymphatic drainage system, which drains areas that are swollen.

Laser therapy also helps stimulate nerve cells tasked with blocking pain signals from being transmitted to the brain, thereby lowering nerve sensitivity. Due to the reduced inflammation and reduction of interference of pain signals that laser therapy can help your pet achieve, your pup will experience holistically less pain. As an added bonus, dog laser therapy stimulates your dog's ability to produce endorphins, which act as a secondary measure to reduce their pain.

Laser Therapy Is Pain-Free

Laser therapy is completely pain-free and actually comforting for your pup. While the laser is administered, your fur baby will feel a gentle, tingling, soothing warmth or nothing at all. For most pups, laser therapy is relaxing. As areas of inflammation or pain become more comfortable, the tension and anxiety your pup may be experiencing will dissipate.
