Laser Therapy

Laser therapy is a method of treatment used to hasten recovery for many ailments that affect your pets. Southwest Louisiana Veterinary Clinic now offers laser therapy, an innovative, painless, drug-free treatment that reduces pain and promotes healing for pets that have chronic wounds, arthritis, surgical incisions, burns, snake bites, and more.

Laser therapy uses light energy to create an optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasms, stiffness, and pain. It can also accelerate tissue repair and cell growth, improve circulation and nerve function, reduce scar tissue formation, and help the immune system fend off infection. Laser therapy causes no adverse effects on healthy cells, it helps the injured area heal, restores function, and relieves pain, allowing your pet to quickly return to normal activities.

Pain management is another excellent application of our therapy laser. Instead of treating conditions such as osteoarthritis with anti-inflammatory drugs, laser therapy is an excellent drug-free alternative that may provide relief without the use of medication.

Most treatments take a matter of minutes and your pet may feel a gentle and soothing warmth. Treatment protocols are unique to each patient and conditions which means that treatments will vary in time, complexity, and cost.

If you live in Sulphur, DeQuincy, Lake Charles, or beyond, and you think your pet may benefit from laser therapy treatments, please schedule an appointment to have your pet evaluated by one of our knowledgeable veterinarians.
