Photobiomodu – WHAT?

LaserPhotobiomodulation, or cold laser therapy, as it is more commonly known, works by stimulating cells to increase circulation, decrease swelling, and speed healing of damaged tissues. Laser also stimulates the release of endorphins, which cause a decrease in pain for pets and people alike.

Laser Therapy is Drug Free, Surgery Free and Pain Free relief for your pet.

With laser therapy we are able to treat pain, speed the recovery of wound healing, as well care for muscle, tendon and ligament injuries.  Laser therapy is especially useful for managing arthritis, as well as helping with post-operative recovery from orthopedic surgery such as cruciate ligament repair.

The treatments usually last between 10-30 minutes depending on the number of areas that are treated.  Ideally, 5 sessions should be performed in the first 2 weeks, then dropping down to once weekly for the next 4 sessions, with a goal of every other week to monthly maintenance sessions.

We are running a special for laser therapy sessions at Hill’s Canine Hydrotherapy.  If you sign up in the month of March, the first 5 sessions will be £100, a £150 value.  Additional sessions are £30/session.

Please note, if your dog already swims with Hill’s and you would like them to benefit from laser therapy as well, laser sessions can be done on the same day as swimming, but should be done before your dog’s swim session.
