Laser therapy, also called photobiomodulation, is a non-invasive modality using light energy to reach target tissues. At Animal Urgent Care of Bentonville, we proudly use the Companion Animal Health Laser, an advanced therapeutic technology designed to reduce pain and inflammation, and accelerates healing by activating cellular responses.
This treatment works well for a wide range of acute and chronic conditions, including surgical wound healing, osteoarthritis, strains and sprains, dental pain, skin conditions, degenerative joint disease, and more. It’s effective both pre-surgery and after, and for supporting recovery from injuries.
Therapeutic light is delivered to tissues via a laser device using species-specific, protocol-driven settings. The light penetrates the skin, interacts at a cellular level (mitochondrial activity), reduces inflammatory mediators, and improves blood flow and tissue regeneration. Proper wavelength, sufficient power, and minimizing barriers like reflection off skin or excessive absorption are important to maximize results.
