Laser therapy treatment is safe, painless and fast. Treatments to deeper tissues are administered in 5 to 10 minutes. Typically, even chronic patients exhibit improvement after 3 to 5 treatment sessions. Laser therapy utilizes the body's own healing powers by stimulating cellular activity.

Despite short treatment times, laser therapy treatments initiate a healing process that continues to actively reduce inflammation for up to 24 hours after treatment.If your pet is feeling pain, has inflammation, or a wound, the laser is a sterile, pain-free, surgery-free, drug-free treatment. The laser is used to treat a variety of injuries, wounds, fractures, neurological conditions, numerous dermatological problems, and pain.

Chinese herbal preparations can sometimes be an important adjunct therapy in veterinary medicine. Over the past several years, our doctors have learned a lot about the use of Chinese herbal remedies to further support your pet's overall health and well being. The Chinese herbal products we use come from Jing Tang Herbal, a state-of-the-art and closely regulated facility in the U.S. that produces high-quality veterinary herbal supplements.

We will call within a few days of the appointment to review your pet's drop off time and explain how long to fast your pet before they come in (usually a minimum of 8 hours). We make sure to answer all your questions so when you come in with your pet you are up to speed on what to expect and feel comfortable entrusting them to our care.
