Laser Therapy
Redwood Veterinary Hospital is thrilled to offer laser therapy for its patients!
Laser therapy is a noninvasive treatment designed to reduce pain and inflammation, and to speed healing. Our team administer laser therapy via a handpiece that emits this therapeutic infrared light in a fast, drug-free, and soothing treatment. The light can treat surface problems such as wounds, as well as deeper structures, penetrating through fur, skin, and fat if necessary to reach damaged tissue.
Laser therapy treatments are fast and pain-free, making them well-tolerated by most pets. When your pet arrives for therapy they will be situated in a comfortable position, and may be outfitted with laser-safe doggles. You will also receive laser-safe eyewear to wear during treatment if you remain with your pet during therapy.
Treatments take approximately 5 - 10 minutes depending on the size of the treatment area and the condition being treated. During this treatment your pet will experience a soothing warmth that often relaxes patients, and sometimes makes them go to sleep!
