Every dog owner would want their little friend to be healthy and live a happy life. However, it is too ideal, and we need to be ready when pets are feeling uncomfortable. Knowing how to alleviate your pet’s distress would be the priority.
Cold laser therapy can deliver non-thermal photons of light to your dog, which helps it to repair injured cells safely and effectively. Nowadays, cold laser therapy has become an increasingly popular treatment used by dog owners and veterinarians worldwide. It helps dogs to stimulate cellular metabolism, improve blood circulation, diminish inflammation, relieve pain and accelerate tissue repair.
What benefits can your dog get from Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy can benefit dogs in multiple conditions, including:
- Healing muscle, ligament and tendon injuries.
- Fixing post-surgical and soft tissue trauma.
- Soothing hot spots and open wounds.
- Curing ear infections.
- Treating gingivitis.
- Alleviating back pain.
- Curing arthritis and hip dysplasia.
- Treating degenerative disc disease.
How does Cold Laser Therapy work for your dog?
Cold laser therapy helps your dog to promote healing and relieve pain through a photochemical process called photobiomodulation. In this process, light interacts with cells to cause biochemical reactions.
When your dog is under Cold Laser Therapy, it increases circulation at the cellular level, stimulates the immune system, reduces inflammation, enhances collagen production and the development of muscle tissue, all of which aid in the repair of damaged tissue. Cold laser therapy works directly on injured or affected areas, thereby speeding up healing, improving mobility and enhancing your dog’s overall quality of life almost immediately.
There are four different approaches of using Cold laser therapy to relieve your dog’s pain. First is by reducing inflammation through vasodilation. Secondly, cold laser therapy can activate the lymphatic drainage system, thus draining swollen areas to relieve pain. The third way is to decrease nerve sensitivity by stimulating nerve cells to block pain signals from being transmitted to the brain. It has also been proven that cold laser therapy can stimulate the production of high levels of naturally-produced endorphins which further counteract your dog’s pain.
Generally, surgical lasers use much higher frequencies to penetrate and reach deeper tissue. However, cold laser therapy is non-invasive. It doesn’t require surgery during treatment or have any known side effects. It is very safe for your dog.
