Drug-Free Pain Management
Cold laser therapy is a pain-free and drug-free therapeutic treatment that we use to treat inflammation and pain in cats and dogs.
Cold laser therapy is non-surgical and can be performed in conjunction with other treatments.
If your cat or dog has sustained an injury, undergone surgery, or suffers from arthritis or another painful condition, they may be a candidate for cold laser therapy to help them heal.
Many of our patients find cold laser therapy to be a relaxing and enjoyable experience.
How Cold Laser Therapy Works
Cold lasers create a focused light that stimulates the tissue at and below the surface of your pet’s skin. The biochemical effect that the light produces promotes cellular energy and regeneration, resulting in tissue repair, better circulation and pain relief.
Veterinarian Dr. Kelsey Mooney performs cold laser therapy for pets across the Fort Collins area.
