Laser Therapy
At Aqua Animal Care Center, we provide advanced laser therapy as part of our comprehensive pet rehabilitation services. Laser therapy is a safe, non-surgical, non-pharmaceutical, and painless treatment designed to alleviate pain and inflammation in pets. The FDA-approved technology has been extensively studied and is widely accepted for its effectiveness and safety, with no known side effects when applied appropriately.
How Does Laser Therapy Work?
Laser therapy uses light energy (photons) to accelerate the body’s natural healing processes. The photons penetrate the skin and interact with cellular components like the mitochondria, the cell’s powerhouse responsible for producing energy (ATP). This photonic energy is converted into cellular energy, enhancing cellular metabolism, enzyme activation, and overall cell function. The result is reduced inflammation and accelerated healing as damaged cells are revitalized and returned to normal function.
