In simple terms, our Portable Laser Therapy uses the power of special light to give dogs a natural boost. Imagine this light as a gentle and magical energy that interacts with your pet's cells, just like sunshine does when it makes you feel good on a sunny day. When this special light touches a dog's skin and muscles, it works its magic to help make them healthier and happier by helping with:
Inflammation
Osteoarthritis & other joint conditions
Dental diseases
Bacterial skin infections, ear infections & other wounds
IVDD, spinal trauma & back pain
ACL/CCL Tears
This depends on what you’re treating and on your pet. We recommend using the laser for a minimum of 5 weeks for joint pain/ligament injuries (2 weeks on, one week off, 2 weeks back on for a total 4 weeks of usage). Minor wounds/incision sites can be treated with 1 daily dose for a week, as this is typically sufficient to speed up healing. Treatment of bacterial infections will depend on the species of bacteria and the extent of the infection. Minor infections could resolve in as little as a week, whereas more severe infections may need antibiotic treatment in combination with LLLT.
