NEW! Class IV Therapy Laser
We know the issue of pain management is of great concern to pet owners today. As in human medicine, we have a variety of medications available to manage your pet’s pain both before and after surgery and in the event of trauma. We would be pleased to discuss the options available to you and your pet under any of the above circumstances.
We just recently added to our line of pain management therapy line. Our new laser therapy equipement allows us to treat arthritis, acute and chronic pain, back injuries, sprains and strains, inflammation and swelling as well as wound healing. Laser therapy has many benefits for your pet. Your pet will not feel any discomfort during treatments. For many years, human medicine has been treating similar conditions, and now we can have the techncology to pass it on to the animal health field. Often, with the use of laser therapy we can often reduce and possibly eliminate the use of medication.
Widely used in human rehabilitation programs and by professional sports trainers, Class IV Laser Therapy alleviates pain, reduces inflammation and accelerates healing. Deep penetrating photons of light from the laser influence cell chemistry and metabolism in a variety of beneficial ways. Treatment with a Class IV Therapy Laser is painless.Laser therapy has become a part of Dr. Goodall’s pain control protocols and wound care (both from surgery and trauma). Numerous acute and chronic conditions respond to treatment as pain and inflammation subside, and healing occurs. Arthritic patients are also benefiting from this non-invasive approach that offers an alternative to drug regimens!
Some of the advantages of laser therapy is the last that it does not require the use of any drugs or surgery, there are fewer side effects and/or risks, it's quick and studies have show that it is equal to or more effective than other forms of physical therapy. The benefits are: non-surgical treatment, no sedation needed and very minimal restraint required, can be combined with medication or other treatments, and most patients feel better within 12-24 hours after their first treatement.
It also has an amazing ability to heal wounds faster and decrease the amount of inflammation around a wound. Cuts, scrapes, hot spots, surgical incisions, bite wounds etc can all be treated within minutes.
